Vic Harris (utility player)

Victor Lanier Harris (born March 27, 1950) is an American former professional baseball utility player.

He played in Major League Baseball from 1972 through 1980 for the Texas Rangers, Chicago Cubs, St. Louis Cardinals, San Francisco Giants and Milwaukee Brewers.

Called "the most valuable property in our organization" by his Rangers manager Whitey Herzog, the switch‐hitting Harris brought to the Cubs youth, speed and the versatility to play both middle infield positions plus third base and center field.

After a season back in the minors, Harris played in 34 games for the Brewers in 1980 to close out his major league career.

The following season, while he batted .272, his power declined, and Harris totaled just 9 home runs and 35 RBI.
