Athletics/White Sox/Pirates 1925-1938

Career Highlight: As a member of the Philadelphia Athletics, hit a 3-run inside-the-park homer in a 10-run seventh inning of Game 4 of the 1929 World Series against the Chicago Cubs. The A's were down 8-0 entering the frame and won 10-8. Two days later in the fifth and final game, Haas hit a game tying 2-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning, helping Philadelphia to the world title.
