Timeline

1963

Walter William Weiss (born November 28, 1963) is an American former professional baseball shortstop and manager and current bench coach for the Atlanta Braves.

1974

His offensive numbers were low (.250 average, three home runs, 39 RBIs and 44 runs scored), but his defensive wizardry helped lead the A's to their first American League pennant since 1974.

1982

Initially drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 10th round of the 1982 amateur draft, Weiss decided to put his professional baseball career on hold and attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

1984

In 1984, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League where he was named a league all-star and set a league record for most doubles in a season.

1985

In June 1985, he was the 12th overall pick in the 1985 draft.

1987

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1987 through 2000 for the Oakland Athletics, Florida Marlins, Colorado Rockies, and Atlanta Braves.

At the age of 23, he made his major league debut for the Oakland Athletics in September 1987.

1988

The club was impressed enough with the young shortstop's talent that they traded starter Alfredo Griffin that December, making him their starting shortstop for 1988.

The 1988 World Series was a rematch of the 1974 matchup, with the Los Angeles Dodgers winning the National League pennant.

His costly error in Game 4 helped the Dodgers win the Series in five games, but he was voted American League Rookie of the Year for 1988 as the third consecutive Oakland player to win the award after sluggers José Canseco in 1986 and Mark McGwire in 1987.

He also made the 1988 Topps All-Star Rookie Roster.

1989

In 1989 the A's repeated as AL pennant winners, meeting their crosstown rival San Francisco Giants in the 1989 World Series.

Although the Series would be overshadowed by the Loma Prieta earthquake on October 17 which delayed play for ten days, Weiss homered and the A's swept the Giants to claim their first world title in fifteen years.

1990

1990 saw Weiss put up his best offensive numbers to date in hits, runs and batting average, while also stealing nine bases.

The A's won their third straight pennant, but Weiss was injured in the 1990 American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox and missed Oakland's 1990 World Series loss to the Cincinnati Reds, four games to none.

1991

Limited by prior injuries, he didn't play much in 1991 as the A's missed the playoffs for the first time since 1987.

The Braves finished with 106 wins but lost the NL pennant to the San Diego Padres, but he was slowed by injuries and appeared in less than a hundred games for the first time since 1991.

The next season, his decline continued with a disappointing .226 batting average.

While with the Braves, Weiss' family had a health scare when his 3-year old son contracted E. Coli from an Atlanta water amusement park which caused his kidneys to shut down.

Weiss' son made a full recovery.

1992

In what would be his final year in Oakland, he hit .212 in 1992 and was traded to the new NL expansion Florida Marlins for Eric Helfand and a player to be named later during the offseason.

1993

He played in 158 games in 1993 for the Marlins, but after the season became a free agent, chose to sign with the Colorado Rockies (which like the Marlins were a new NL expansion team in 1993) and was the first player to play for both of these 1993 expansion teams.

Weiss spent four years in Colorado, posting career highs in home runs (8) and RBIs (48).

1997

In December 1997, he signed with the Atlanta Braves and became their starting shortstop, hitting .280 and making the All-Star team for the only time in his career in 1998.

1999

In Game 3 of the 1999 NLDS against the Houston Astros, however, he made a stunning defensive play to save the season.

In the bottom of the tenth, with the bases loaded, one out and the score tied, Tony Eusebio hit a sharp grounder up the middle.

Weiss ranged hard to his left, fell on his stomach and threw to home for the force.

After the game, he said the ball nearly ripped the glove off his hand.

Weiss and the Braves went on to win the game, and with it the division series, on their way to the NL pennant and the 1999 World Series, which they lost to the New York Yankees.

2000

In 2000, he only had 192 at-bats, mostly due to losing the starting shortstop job to the emergent Rafael Furcal, who would go on to win Rookie of the Year just like Weiss twelve years prior.

He retired after the season.

Weiss's charitable contributions have included numerous donations to Watertown High School in Watertown, New York.

The baseball field at his alma mater, Suffern High School, is named after him.

After retiring from the Braves as a player following the 2000 season, he returned to the Rockies as a special instructor and adviser to the front office from 2002 to 2008.

He left that job to spend more time with his family, and coach his sons' baseball and football teams.

2012

Weiss was signed on November 7, 2012, to be the manager of the Colorado Rockies.

2013

He managed the Rockies from 2013 through 2016.

Weiss won the Rookie of the Year award.

He was also a member of the National League All-Star Team.

2016

Weiss made the decision to step down as the manager of the Colorado Rockies after four managerial seasons with the club on October 3, 2016.
