}} Richard Fred Drott (July 1, 1936 – August 16, 1985) was a Major League Baseball player who pitched for the Chicago Cubs and the Houston Colt .45s. Drott, nicknamed "Hummer", started his major league career in 1957 with the Cubs. He won 15 games as a rookie, led the league in walks allowed, and finished third in balloting for Rookie of the Year. He graduated from Western Hills High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. On April 24, 1957, Drott was ejected from a game for using a wheelchair to wheel Moe Drabowsky to first base after Drabowsky claimed he was hit on the foot by a pitch.[1] Arm injuries limited Drott's effectiveness after 1957. He was drafted during the regular phase of the 1961 MLB Expansion Draft by the Houston Colt .45s. After posting a 2–12 record in 1963, Drott was sent back to the minor leagues. By 1965 he was finished playing professional baseball. Drott finished his career with a record of 27–46 with a lifetime 4.78 ERA in 176 games played. Dick Drott died of stomach cancer at age 49.[2] References1. ^{{cite web|publisher=retrosheet.org|title=Cincinnati Reds 9, Chicago Cubs 5|date=April 24, 1957|url=http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1957/B04240CIN1957.htm|accessdate=November 19, 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|last1=Pittman|first1=Darrell|url=http://www.astrosdaily.com/history/deceased.html#Drott_Dick|title=Astros in the Sky: Houston players that have passed on|website=astrosdaily.com|accessdate=November 19, 2015}} External links{{Baseballstats |mlb=113576 |espn= |br=d/drottdi01 |fangraphs= |cube= |brm=drott-001ric }}{{DEFAULTSORT:Drott, Dick}}{{US-baseball-pitcher-1930s-stub}} 17 : 1936 births|1985 deaths|Baseball players from Ohio|Burlington Bees players|Deaths from cancer in Illinois|Cedar Rapids Indians players|Chicago Cubs players|Columbus Jets players|Deaths from stomach cancer|Des Moines Bruins players|Fort Worth Cats players|Houston Colt .45s players|Los Angeles Angels (minor league) players|Major League Baseball pitchers|Oklahoma City 89ers players|San Antonio Bullets players|Sportspeople from Cincinnati |
