Rufus Meadows

Rufus Rivers Meadows (August 25, 1907 – May 10, 1970) was an American left-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball for the Cincinnati Reds in 1926. He appeared in just one game, an 18–1 loss to the Chicago Cubs. Meadows faced the Cubs' final batter of the game, inducing an out to finish off the blowout loss by his Reds. He is the only pitcher to face only one batter in his only MLB game.

Meadows was only 18 when he had his brief moment as a major leaguer, and he was the second-youngest player to play in the National League that season, trailing only future Hall of Famer Mel Ott.

Meadows died May 10, 1970, in Wichita, Kansas.
