Maryville College Baseball Players Who Made it to the Major Leagues

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive chart of every Maryville College alumnus who played baseball at Maryville College AND made it to the Major League level.

"(Tom) Saffell spent most of his career in the American Association and Pacific Coast League, but was an extra outfielder and pinch hitter in four seasons with Pittsburgh. While managing Reno (California League) in 1964, he was suspended for 30 days and fined $250 when he refused to field his team as a protest against poor umpiring." - Norman L. Macht in BaseballLibrary.com (2004)
