Heard began his pro career in the Negro Leagues after serving in the United States Army during World War II.[2] During his career in the Negro Leagues, he pitched for the Birmingham Black Barons, Memphis Red Sox, Houston Eagles and New Orleans Eagles.[3] In 1952, at age 32, he joined the organized minor leagues, winning 20 games for the Victoria Tyees of the Class A Western International League.[4] Promoted the following season to the top level of the minors, the Open Classification Pacific Coast League, Heard won 16 games for the Portland Beavers.[4] The Orioles, newly transplanted to Baltimore as the former St. Louis Browns, purchased Heard's contract that winter. Heard was a member of the first Baltimore team to play in the American League since {{baseball year|1902}}. He made two appearances for the 1954 Orioles as a relief pitcher, both times against the Chicago White Sox. In his April 24 debut, he faced four batters and retired all of them.[5] But in his second game, more than a month later on May 28, Heard allowed six hits and five runs, all earned, in two innings. A grand slam home run by Chicago's light-hitting Cass Michaels was the most damaging blow.[6] He then returned to the minors, where he pitched at the upper levels through 1957.[4] References1. ^{{cite news|last1=Encina|first1=Eduardo|last2=Kaltenbach|first2=Chris|title=Even with Camden Yards closed to public, fans found way to support O's|url=http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/bs-sp-orioles-empty-stadium-0430-20150429-story.html#page=1|newspaper=The Baltimore Sun|date=April 29, 2015|accessdate=April 20, 2015}} 2. ^Baseball in Wartime 3. ^BaseballHistorian.com 4. ^1 2 [https://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=heard-001jeh Minor league statistics from Baseball Reference] 5. ^1954-4-24 box score from Retrosheet 6. ^1954-5-28 box score from Retrosheet External links{{Baseballstats|br=h/heardja01}}
