Question
Hi Tom!
I'm looking for a player who apparently had a really short major league career... He had six outs in three at bats. Probably he got three walks and had been caught stealing and was out the three other times.
I want to know who may be this player.
Thank you!
Marco,
His name was Ron Wright, a DH for the Seattle Mariners for one game. He accounted for the six outs by striking out, hitting into a double play, and hitting into a triple play. Amazing. Never played again. Full story at:
