The Dartmouth College baseball program started in 1866 and Lee Viau was their first player to make it to the Major League level.
Many sources often include Brad Ausmus when they mention Dartmouth College major league ballplayers. Baseball Almanac DID NOT include him on the chart above with Dates Played because he did not play for the Big Green baseball team:
"An All-Star catcher in 1999, (Brad) Ausmus never donned a Green and White uniform because he was the property of the New York Yankees while attending classes at Dartmouth. Though the catcher played minor league ball while attending college, he graduated from Dartmouth in 1991. Ausmus was selected in the third round of the 1992 expansion draft by the Colorado Rockies."
