#461 Tim Cullen
Holds a dubious distinction of 1971....lowest
batting average of all players 250 At Bats and above with .191 mark.... by
default a good glove man because he had to be....little power with 9 home runs
in 1761 at bats....A bad sign was most of his baseball cards showed Tim
either fielding or choking up with a fungo bat....A regular reserve middle infield for the Senator's later years in Washington DC....holds a special relationship
with fellow infielder Ron Hansen for they were trade for each other twice in
1968....Tim a brief respite for 72 game in the Windy City Southside...Was
released by Texas/Washington prior to 1972...how low can you go?....picked up
by A’s and responded with career high BA of .261 in 142 at bats as Oakland scrambled to replace Dick Green....ended career
with his only post season at bat against Detroit.
