}} Kenneth Wayne Trinkle (December 15, 1919 – May 10, 1976) was an American professional baseball player, a relief pitcher, in Major League Baseball. He played with the New York Giants from 1943–48, and the Philadelphia Phillies in 1949. As a relief specialist in Major League Baseball, he led the National League in appearances in 1946 and 1947.[1] He threw and batted right-handed during his baseball career. CareerBaseballKen Trinkle signed a professional contract to play with the Thomasville Dodgers Minor League Baseball team in 1939 after playing baseball as pitcher in high-school.[2] As a Minor League Baseball player, Trinkle played baseball in the Baltimore Orioles organization of the International League from 1940 to 1942, and was 15–11 during his last year with the Orioles before being purchased by the New York Giants.[2] Trinkle made his major league debut with the New York Giants on April 25, 1943 at age 23. He made 11 appearances with the Giants. Despite a respectable 3.74 earned run average (ERA), he went 1–5 when he got farmed out to Jersey City, New Jersey.[2] Military serviceOn September 18, 1943, Trinkle entered military service with the United States Army during World War II.[2] In 1944, he was stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas, where he played with the Fort Riley baseball team.[2] He played alongside Pete Reiser, Harry Walker, Joe Gantenbein, Al Brazle, Murry Dickson and Joe Garagiola.[2] Trinkle, Dickson and Gantenbein were later shipped to France. They eventually had been separated upon arrival. Trinkle went to the replacement center and served for the 9th Armored Division military unit. He fought during the Battle of the Bulge and was awarded a Bronze Star for his service. "I was a scout in a reconnaissance outfit", he told The Sporting News on June 4, 1947. "We would go out in front of the infantry to report if anything was there. If you didn’t come back, they knew there was something out there."[2] After the German surrender in May 1945, Trinkle teamed up with Ralph Houk for the 9th Armored Division baseball team. They made it to the play-offs of the 1945 ETO World Series.[2] Another teammate was a Minor League Baseball player, Ed Musial, who was Stan's younger brother. After the cease of hostilities in Europe, Trinkle played for the 71st Infantry Division Red Circlers baseball team.[2] The team featured players such as Ewell Blackwell, Ancil Moore, Johnny Wyrostek, Garland Lawing, Russ Kern, Milt Ticco, Herb Bremer and Bill Ayers. The team eventually lost the World Series.[2] Post-military serviceBy November 1945, Trinkle was back playing with the New York Giants. He made a league-leading 48 appearances for the Giants in 1946, and in 1947, he again led the National League in appearances with 62, finishing 38 of those games.[1][2] On June 11, 1947, future Baseball Hall of Famer Mel Ott made his last appearance as a player when he pinch hit for Trinkle in the New York Giants' 8–7 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates when he popped the ball to shortstop.[3] He made a further 53 appearances in 1948, but Trinkle was purchased by the Philadelphia Phillies on December 14.[2][4] In 1949, his only season with Philadelphia and his last in Major League Baseball, Trinkle pitched in 42 games and recorded his highest major league earned run average (ERA) at 4.00. Trinkle pitched for the Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League in 1950, and was back with Baltimore for the 1951 and 1952 baseball seasons.[2] Trinkle died on May 10, 1976, in his hometown of Paoli, Indiana at age 56.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/13604307 |title=Ken Trinkle (1919 – 1976) – Find a Grave Memorial |publisher=findagrave.com |accessdate=October 26, 2008}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 {{cite web|url=http://www.baseballinwartime.com/player_biographies/trinkle_ken.htm|title=Baseball in Wartime – Ken Trinkle|publisher=baseballinwartime.com|accessdate=October 26, 2008}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.baseballlibrary.com/ballplayers/player.php?name=Ken_Trinkle_1919&page=chronology |title=The Ballplayers – Ken Trinkle |publisher=baseballlibrary.com |accessdate=October 26, 2008 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070523154004/http://www.baseballlibrary.com/ballplayers/player.php?name=Ken_Trinkle_1919&page=chronology |archivedate=May 23, 2007 |df= }} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/t/trinkke01.shtml#TRANS|title=Transactions|publisher=Baseball-Reference.com|accessdate=October 26, 2008}} External links{{Baseballstats |mlb=123468 |espn= |br=t/trinkke01 |fangraphs=1013186 |cube=19015 |brm=trinkl001ken |retro=Ptrink101 }}
