Waite Hoyt Stats

Waite Hoyt was born on Saturday, September 9, 1899, in Brooklyn, New York. Hoyt was 18 years old when he broke into the big leagues on July 24, 1918, with the New York Giants. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Waite Hoyt baseball stats page.

"The Yankees mystique had a long history. Pitcher Waite Hoyt, after he was traded to the National League in the 1930s, was enduring a number of barbs from the cocky Chicago Cubs. 'If you guys don't shut up,' he retorted, 'I'll put on my old Yankee uniform and scare you to death.'" - Author William J. Ryczek in The Yankees in the Early 1960s (McFarland Publishing, 09/06/2007, Page 123)
