1968 – Chris Haney (Pitcher – 1992-98)

Happy Birthday!

 

Did You Know: Chris’ dad Larry was a big league catcher from 1966-1978 playing for Orioles, Pilots, A’s, Cardinals and Brewers. Chris is one of only nineteen putchers in Royals History to ever throw a two-hit complete game.

In 1999, while pitching for the Cleveland Indians, Chris gave up hit #3,000 to Wade Boggs of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. It marked the first time in major league history that a player collected his 3,000th hit with a home run.
