Career highlights and awards

Robert Randall Thompson (born May 10, 1962) is an American former professional baseball player and coach. He played his entire career in Major League Baseball (1986–1996) with the San Francisco Giants where he was their starting second baseman for eleven straight years. Although he was often overshadowed by his contemporary, Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg, Thompson was a two-time All-Star player who served as a catalyst for the powerful Giants offense led by Will Clark and Kevin Mitchell during the team's resurgence in the late 1980s.

After his playing career, Thompson coached for the Giants, Cleveland Indians, and Seattle Mariners.
