The brother of Hall of Famer, Joe DiMaggio, Dom DiMaggio was a very good baseball player in his own right.

Nicknamed the "Little Professor" (Which is precisely what he looked like), DiMaggio would be an effective leadoff man from the second he put on a Boston uniform.  He debuted in 1940 and went to the All-Star Game for the next two years.  In both of those years, he had at least 165 Hits, and batted over .280.
