About Dave Cheadle

Lived 1952 – 2012 (aged 60). Dave Cheadle was an American baseball player.

David Baird Cheadle, Jr. (February 19, 1952 – February 25, 2012) was an American professional baseball player. A , left-handed pitcher, he appeared in two Major League games pitched for the Atlanta Braves. He was born in Greensboro, North Carolina, and attended Asheville High School in Asheville, North Carolina. He attended and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, after his baseball career ended. In his next outing, nine days later, Cheadle pitched one inning in relief of Phil Niekro and surrendered a three-run home run to Ron Cey, insurance runs for Los Angeles Dodgers' starting pitcher Don Sutton in a 5–1 Dodger win. Cheadle never saw any Major League action after 1973.

In two MLB innings pitched, Cheadle allowed four hits, four earned runs, and three bases on balls, two of them intentional. He recorded only one strikeout — but it was against all-time hits leader Rose in Cheadle's MLB debut.

Cheadle died on February 25, 2012, in St. Augustine, Florida, six days after his 60th birthday.
