Description
Gordon Vincent Sundin is a retired American professional baseball player. He was a right-handed pitcher whose professional career lasted for six seasons, but who made only one appearance in Major League Baseball ? failing to record an out ? for the 1956 Baltimore Orioles. Sundin batted right-handed, stood 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighed 215 pounds.
Sundin's lone MLB appearance came on Wednesday, September 19, 1956, at Briggs Stadium against the Detroit Tigers. Baltimore was already behind, 8?1, when Sundin, three weeks shy of his 19th birthday, came into the game in the bottom half of the eighth inning. He faced two batters ? Tiger pitcher Frank Lary and Harvey Kuenn ? and issued two bases on balls before he was relieved by Billy O'Dell. Lary would later score an earned run charged against Sundin.
Sundin compiled a 14?23 win-loss record and a 5.86 ERA in 5 seasons of minor league baseball, retiring in 1961 at the age of 23.
