context_page_description: Dagoberto Campaneris Blanco, nicknamed "Bert" or "Campy", is a Cuban American former professional baseball shortstop, who played Major League Baseball for four American League teams, primarily the Kansas City and Oakland Athletics. One of the mainstays of the Athletics' championship teams of 1972 to 1974, he holds the A's franchise records for career games played, hits, and at bats. Campaneris led the AL in stolen bases six times between 1965 and 1972 and retired with the seventh-most steals in MLB history. Defensively, he led the league in putouts three times; his career totals at shortstop place him among the all-time MLB leaders in games played and double plays, at that position. Campaneris is the cousin of former MLB player Jose Cardenal.
