Joe Thatcher was born on Sunday, October 4, 1981, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Thatcher was 25 years old when he broke into the big leagues on July 26, 2007, with the San Diego Padres.

"(Joe) Thatcher reduced his earned-run average to 0.95, helped preserve the Padres' one-game lead in the National League's wild-card race and solidified his place in their postseason plans. Not bad for a fellow who had gone undrafted and unwanted out of Indiana State University. Not bad for a pitcher who was closing for the independent Frontier League's River City Rascals as recently as 2005. Not bad for a guy who had all but resigned himself to a career selling insurance before the Brewers plucked him out of obscurity and shipped him to San Diego in the Scott Linebrink deal." - Columnist Tim Sullivan on SignOnSanDieg.com (09/28/2007)
