Steve Lomasney was in the late 1990s a highly regarded catching prospect for the Boston Red Sox. During his career, he batted and threw right-handed, stood 6 feet tall, and weighed 195 pounds. He starred for Peabody High School in Peabody, Massachusetts in both baseball and football. He became a local hero when he caught for the Peabody High School baseball team that won the Greater Boston League Championship as well quarterbacking two Massachusetts Super Bowl teams. He was named the MVP of the Greater Boston League, Player of the Year, and a member of All-Scholastic teams in football and baseball. After being drafted by Boston in the 5th round of the 1995 amateur draft, he signed with the Red Sox on June 29, 1995. He instantly became a rising star in the system, peaking with his being named Minor League Player of the Year for Boston's Class A affiliate in Sarasota. However, a series of injuries derailed his career from that point forward. His major league career consisted of a single game at Baltimore on October 3, 1999, in which he came into the game as a defensive replacement for Jason Varitek in the bottom of the fifth inning.
