Steve Kuczek--1949



In 2004 I had the pleasure to interview
Steve Kuczek for the magazine
At The
Yard
about his one appearance in a big
league game. He was gracious in telling
the story of the humorous circumstances
that led to his entry into the game and
subsequently the record books as one of
the nearly one hundred hitters to have a
1.000 career batting average.


Kuczek passed away in November 2010,
but his story lives on...
