}}Harry Walter Anderson (September 10, 1931 – June 11, 1998) was an American Major League Baseball player. The native of North East, Maryland, was nicknamed "Harry the Horse," standing {{convert|6|ft|3|in}} tall and weighing {{convert|205|lb}}. He batted left-handed and threw right-handed. He is the last player in MLB to lead the league in strikeouts (95 in 1958) with fewer than 100 strikeouts.[1] An outfielder, Anderson attended West Chester University and was signed in {{baseball year|1953}} by the Philadelphia Phillies. Anderson played 484 career games from 1957–61 with the Phillies and the Cincinnati Reds. Anderson's first two years in the Major Leagues were his finest. Playing as the Phils' regular left fielder with occasional appearances as a first baseman, Anderson finished in the Top 25 in voting for the National League Most Valuable Player Award in both {{baseball year|1957}} and {{baseball year|1958}}. During the latter campaign, in his sophomore season in Philadelphia, he batted .301 with 23 home runs and 97 runs batted in, all career highs. But Anderson's performance went into decline in {{baseball year|1959}} and in June {{baseball year|1960}} the Phillies traded him to the Reds with Wally Post for young outfielders Tony González and Lee Walls.[2] González would be the Phils' starting centerfielder for much of the 1960s. Anderson, meanwhile, continued to struggle in Cincinnati and was sent to the minor leagues during the May 1961 roster cutdown. Overall, Anderson recorded 419 career hits in 1,586 at bats in the Major Leagues. In 1992, Anderson was inducted into the Delaware Sports Museum and Hall of Fame. He suffered a fatal heart attack, at his home, in Greenville, Delaware, June 11, 1998, aged 66 years.[3] References1. ^https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/SO_leagues.shtml 2. ^[https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1755&dat=19600617&id=TLcqAAAAIBAJ&sjid=HGUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=7092,2935933 Phillies send Post, Anderson to Reds] 3. ^[https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1356&dat=19980612&id=7-RPAAAAIBAJ&sjid=RggEAAAAIBAJ&pg=2619,6570369 Former Phillies outfielder dies] External links{{baseballstats|mlb=110240|espn=17667|br=a/anderha02|fangraphs=1000230|cube=8201|brm=anders014har|retro=A/Pandeh101}}
