Steve Kuczek Stats

Steve Kuczek was born on Sunday, December 28, 1924, in Amsterdam, New York. Kuczek was 24 years old when he broke into the big leagues on September 29, 1949, with the Boston Braves. 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 Steve Kuczek baseball stats page.

"If not for an umpire's ejection of a player for donning a raincoat on the field, Kuczek most likely would have quietly lived out his life as one of the thousands of minor leaguers who aspired to play at the major league level but never gained an entry in Total Baseball. Kuczek not only gained his one chance on the major league diamond but also became one of the very few players in major league history to achieve a 1.000 career batting average." - SABR Researcher Charlie Bevis on The Baseball Biography Project (Source)
