I dunno why, but this cracks me up.

Any chance Pat Sheridan went back in time?
That's a bad career, but still impressive that someone that didn't know how to Throw or Bat even made it to the big leagues.
Yeah, I had a similar thought about Marty Barrett:

Wow... Between the two, I'd say Sheridan is the hands-down winner for the Sultan of Suck.
No hits, no walks, nothing. The guy apparently even played a whole game in left field without even TOUCHING the ball. That has to be the do-nothing record of all time.
There's a ton of guys who appeared in one game and then never played again.

I scrolled down that list and found a guy named Harvey Grubb - he appeared in one game, with no official AB, an OBP of 1.000, and no walks. I believe that means that in his only major league plate appearance, he was hit by a pitch.
Something i thought was kind of funny was that there was not one HR in the whole group. I guess if somebody hit a bomb, they'd at least get a shot in another game but there were guys with multi hit games and RBI's who never got in another one.
