Early in his career, Thome played <a href="/wiki/Third_baseman" title="Third baseman">third base</a>, before eventually becoming a <a href="/wiki/First_baseman" title="First baseman">first baseman</a>. With the Indians, he was part of a core of players that led the franchise to five consecutive playoff appearances in the 1990s, including <a href="/wiki/World_Series" title="World Series">World Series</a> appearances in 1995 and 1997. Thome spent over a decade with Cleveland, before leaving via free agency after the 2002 season, to join the <a href="/wiki/Philadelphia_Phillies" title="Philadelphia Phillies">Philadelphia Phillies</a>, with whom he spent the following three seasons. Traded to the <a href="/wiki/Chicago_White_Sox" title="Chicago White Sox">Chicago White Sox</a> before the 2006 season, he won the <a href="/wiki/American_League" title="American League">American League</a> (AL) <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Comeback_Player_of_the_Year_Award" title="Major League Baseball Comeback Player of the Year Award">Comeback Player of the Year Award</a> that year and joined the <a href="/wiki/500_home_run_club" title="500 home run club">500 home run club</a> during his three-season tenure with the White Sox.

In 12 different seasons, he hit at least 30 home runs, topping 40 home runs in six of those seasons. He hit a career-high 52 home runs in 2002, and in 2003 he <a href="/wiki/List_of_Major_League_Baseball_annual_home_run_leaders" title="List of Major League Baseball annual home run leaders">led the National League in home runs</a> with 47. Due in part to his ability to draw walks, with 12 seasons of at least 90 <a href="/wiki/Base_on_balls" title="Base on balls">bases on balls</a>, he finished his career with a .402 <a href="/wiki/On-base_percentage" title="On-base percentage">on-base percentage</a>.

In 2011, he became only the eighth MLB player to hit 600 home runs. Thome is the career leader in walk-off home runs with 13.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> One of his trademarks was his unique batting stance, in which he held the bat out with his right hand and pointed it at right field before the pitcher threw, something he first saw in <a href="/wiki/The_Natural_(film)" title="The Natural (film)">The Natural</a>.
