Gordie Mueller

Mueller's ten-year pro career began in 1941 with his hometown Orioles, then a minor league baseball franchise in the International League. He made his major-league debut nine years later as a member of the Red Sox' early season roster. In eight relief appearances, three in April and July and two in May, Mueller allowed eight runs and 11 hits, giving 13 base on balls and registering one strikeout in seven full innings pitched for a 10.29 ERA. He did not have a decision or a save. He also spent part of that year at Triple-A Louisville, then finished his pro career in 1952. After baseball, he had a long and successful career in commercial real estate in his native state.

Mueller died at the age of 83 in Timonium, Maryland where he lived.
