Reggie Jackson’s IQ Is 160, Reggie Jackson – IQ 160, Reggie is the one and only “Mr. October”, had a candy bar named for him, is a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame, and is never bashful about letting everyone know how smart he is. He attended Arizona State on an athletic/academic scholarship but left after his sophomore year to sign a professional contract with the Oakland A’s.

Reginald Martinez “Reggie” Jackson (born May 18, 1946) is an American former baseball right fielder who played 21 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for four different teams (1967-1987). He was nicknamed “Mr. October” for his clutch hitting in the postseason with the Oakland A’s and the New York Yankees. Jackson won five consecutive American League West divisional pennants, three consecutive American League pennants and two consecutive World Series titles as a member of the Oakland Athletics (he did not play in the 1972 World Series due to injury) from 1971 to 1975; four American League East divisional pennants, three American League pennants and two consecutive World Series titles with the Yankees from 1977 to 1981; and two American League West divisional pennants with the California Angels in 1982 and 1986. He is perhaps best remembered for hitting three consecutive home runs in the clinching game of the 1977 World Series.

Jackson played for the Kansas City / Oakland Athletics (1967-1975, 1987), Baltimore Orioles (1976), New York Yankees (1977-1981), and California Angels (1982-1986). A 14-time All-Star and five-time World Series champion, Jackson won two Silver Slugger Awards, the 1973 American League (AL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award, two World Series MVP Awards, and the 1977 Babe Ruth Award.

Jackson was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1993. The Athletics and Yankees both retired his uniform number. Jackson currently serves as a special advisor to the Yankees.
