Sixto Lezcano
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sixto Joaquin Lezcano Curras (born November 28, 1953 in Arecibo, Puerto Rico) was a Major League Baseball player from 1974 - 1985 for the Milwaukee Brewers, St. Louis Cardinals, San Diego Padres, Philadelphia Phillies and Pittsburgh Pirates. Lezcano's best season came in 1979 with the Brewers when he pounded 28 home runs, had 101 Runs Batted In and hit for a .321 batting average. He also received his only Gold Glove during that season.
There was some controversy as to how his first name is pronounced. Most broadcasters and public address announcers used "Six-toe", while others insisted that it should be "Sees-to".
He is a cousin of center fielder Carlos Lezcano.
