Robert Raymond Pfeil is a former right-handed Major League Baseball third baseman who played in 1969 and 1971 for the New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies. He attended Reseda High School. Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Chicago Cubs in 1961, Pfeil was traded with Hal Gilson to the St. Louis Cardinals for Bob Humphreys on April 7, 1965. Before the start of the 1968 season, he was sent from the Cardinals to the Mets in an unknown transaction. He made his big league debut at the age of 25 on June 26, 1969 against pitcher Grant Jackson and the rest of the Philadelphia Phillies. Pfeil went 1-for-4 in his debut, although Jackson shut the Mets out 2-0 and held them to just four hits. In addition, he collected ten strikeouts in that game. Pfeil did well during the first two weeks of his debut - he was hitting .333 on July 4 - but by July 31 his batting average had slumped to .232. Coincidentally, that is what his final batting average for the season would end up being. After July 31, he was able to pull his average above .240 only once, and he let is slip down to .217 at one point.
