}}Joseph Lovitto, Jr. (January 6, 1951 – May 19, 2001) was an American professional baseball player, a center fielder in Major League Baseball who played for the Texas Rangers (1972–1975). He was a switch-hitter and threw right-handed, standing {{convert|6|ft}} tall and weighing {{convert|185|lb}}.[1] CareerA native of San Pedro, California,[2] Lovitto was a competent outfielder with blazing speed who batted over .300 in his minor league career, but never fulfilled expectations at the Major League level. One of his former managers, Billy Martin, wrote, in his autobiography, that Lovitto could have had a great career if not for injuries.[3] Lovitto started in center field on Opening Day of {{by|1972}} in the Texas Rangers' inaugural season. In his rookie year he hit .224 (74-for-330) with 19 runs batted in and 13 stolen bases in 117 games played. Then he lost almost the 1973 season with an injured leg, appearing in only 26 games. The following year he hit .223 in 113 games, but in 1975 was put on the disabled list with a variety of major injuries and appeared in just 50 games. Before the 1976 season, he was sent to the New York Mets in exchange for outfielder Gene Clines but was released during spring training. In a four-season career, Lovitto was a .216 hitter (165-for-763) with four home runs, 53 RBI, and 22 stolen bases in 306 games.[4] DeathLovitto died from cancer in Arlington, Texas, at the age of 50.{{Citation needed|date=May 2018}} References1. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/l/lovitjo01.shtml|title=Joe Lovitto Stats {{!}} Baseball-Reference.com|website=Baseball-Reference.com|language=en|access-date=2017-11-08}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.baseballamerica.com/statistics/players/cards/20762/joe-lovitto|title=Joe Lovitto Stats & Scouting Report - Baseball America|website=www.baseballamerica.com|language=en|access-date=2017-11-08}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=lovitjo01|title=Joe Lovitto Baseball Stats by Baseball Almanac|last=Inc.|first=Baseball Almanac,|website=www.baseball-almanac.com|access-date=2017-11-08}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.espn.com/mlb/player/stats/_/id/24393/joe-lovitto|title=Joe Lovitto|website=ESPN.com|access-date=2017-11-08}} External links{{baseballstats|br=l/lovitjo01|brm=lovitt001jos}}
