}}James Vincent "Pag" Pagliaroni (December 8, 1937 – April 3, 2010) was an American professional baseball player.[1] He played in Major League Baseball as a catcher from 1955 to 1969 for the Boston Red Sox, Pittsburgh Pirates, Oakland Athletics and the Seattle Pilots.[1]

Playing career

Pagliaroni was born in Dearborn, Michigan, and grew up in Long Beach, California.[2] He was contracted by the Boston Red Sox as an amateur free agent out of Wilson High School in Long Beach, California in 1955.[1][3][4] He was only 17 years old when he made his debut with the Red Sox that same year.[5] Although he didn't get much opportunity to play during his first season, he received valuable instruction from former catcher, Mickey Owen.[6] Pagliaroni then joined the United States Army from 1956 to 1958, when he was discharged in time to report to spring training with the Red Sox.[7][8] Pagliaroni spent the next three seasons playing in the minor leagues before rejoining the Red Sox in August 1960.[9] He was standing in the on deck circle during a game at Fenway Park on September 28, 1960, when Ted Williams hit a home run in his final at bat in the major leagues.[10]

In 1961 Pagliaroni appeared in 120 games, more than any other Red Sox catcher and posted a .242 batting average with 16 home runs and 58 runs batted in.[11] Pagliaroni was the hitting standout on June 18, 1961 when he hit a grand slam home run to tie the game as the Red Sox rallied from 8 runs down with two outs in the ninth inning to defeat the Washington Senators.[12][13] Pagliaroni shared catching duties in 1962 with Russ Nixon and Bob Tillman.[14] He once again led the Red Sox catchers in games played with 90 appearances. He was the Red Sox catcher on August 1, 1962 when Bill Monbouquette threw a no-hitter against the Chicago White Sox.[15]

On November 20, 1962, Pagliaroni was traded by the Boston Red Sox along with Don Schwall to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Jack Lamabe and Dick Stuart.[3] When the Pirates' regular catcher, Smoky Burgess, was sidelined by an injury, Pagliaroni alternated with catcher Ron Brand to fulfill the catching duties.[16] Pagliaroni himself was injured in June when, a fractured ring finger on his right hand made him miss three weeks of the season.[16] He ended the 1963 season with a .230 batting average with 11 home runs in 92 games.[1]

In 1964, Pagliaroni would catch the majority of the Pirates' games, as the 36-year-old Burgess was used mostly as a pinch hitter.[17] He produced a .295 batting average along with 10 home runs and provided solid defense, finishing third among National League catchers in fielding percentage.[1] Pagliaroni set a Pirates team record for catchers when he hit a career-high 17 home runs in 1965 while playing his home games at the cavernous Forbes Field.[10] He also produced a career-high 65 runs batted in and finished second among the league's catchers in fielding percentage, helping the Pirates to a third-place finish in the National League.[1]

In July 1966, as the Pirates were battling for the lead in the National League, Pagliaroni denied a story that he had struck Pirates manager Harry Walker and had been fined $1000.[18] Pagliaroni later sued Maury Allen, the sportswriter who had written the story, for $1 million.[19] The Pirates team which included future Baseball Hall of Fame members Roberto Clemente, Bill Mazeroski and Willie Stargell, fought the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants in a tight pennant race in 1966, holding first place on September 10, before faltering to finish the season in third place for a second consecutive year.[20] Pagliaroni faded towards the end of the season as his batting average dipped to .235, and Jesse Gonder became the primary catcher.[21] Pagliaroni finished the 1966 season leading National League catchers with a .997 fielding percentage, committing only 2 errors in 118 games.[1]

In May 1967, reports surfaced that Pagliaroni was asking to be traded, citing criticism his catching abilities had received from unnamed sources.[22] He appeared in only 38 games with a .200 batting average for the Pirates in 1967, while Jerry May took over as the regular catcher.[1] On December 3, 1967, Pagliaroni's contract was purchased by the Oakland Athletics from the Pittsburgh Pirates.[23] The Pirates stated that Pagliaroni was sold due to his physical condition, having undergone an operation to remove a disc from his spine.[23]

Pagliaroni won the Athletics' starting catchers job at the beginning of the 1968 season and caught Catfish Hunter's perfect game on May 8 of that year, the first perfect game in the American League since {{By|1922}}.[24] Hunter only disagreed with Pagliaroni's pitch-calling decisions twice during the game.[25] As a measure of his appreciation for his catcher's contribution to the perfect game, Hunter rewarded Pagliaroni with a gold watch that he had inscribed on back.[26] He suffered a fractured wrist in June causing him to miss seven weeks of the season.[27][28][29]

He began the 1969 season hitting for just a .148 batting average and on May 27, 1969, his contract was sold to the Seattle Pilots during their inaugural season as a major league team.[1] He shared catching duties with Jerry McNertney in the season immortalized by the book Ball Four, written by his Seattle teammate, Jim Bouton.[8] Pagliaroni played in his final major league game on September 30, 1969 at the age of 31.[1]

Career statistics

In an eleven-year major league career, Pagliaroni played in 849 games, accumulating 622 hits in 2,465 at bats for a .252 career batting average, along with 90 home runs, 326 runs batted in and an on-base percentage of .344.[1] He had a career fielding percentage of .991 which was 3 points above the average during his playing career.[1] His teammates elected him to be the Players' Representative to the Players Union for both the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Oakland Athletics.[2]

Later life

Pagliaroni later became an executive with a food distribution company.[8] He also helped raise funds for the Jim "Catfish" Hunter ALS Foundation to help honor Hunter, who died of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, in {{By|1999}}.[8]

On April 3, 2010, Pagliaroni died of cancer in Grass Valley, California.[2][8]
