About Pryor McBee
Lived 1901 – 1963 (aged 61). Pryor McBee was an American baseball player.
Pryor Edward McBee (June 20, 1901 – April 19, 1963) was a pitcher in Major League Baseball who appeared in one game as a reliever for the 1926 Chicago White Sox.
The Chicago Tribune reported in 1926 that McBee's income from baseball was "merely incidental" because he "owns some Oklahoma oil lands." McBee was one-eighth Choctaw and an enrolled member of the Choctaw Nation. He attended Jones Academy where the school's athletic director encouraged him to pursue baseball.
While pitching for the Jacksonville Tars during spring training in 1928, McBee struck out both Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig in one inning.
