Roselli, who played most of his baseball career in the Minor leagues, caught from 1950 through 1953 with three Milwaukee Braves teams at two different levels. He missed the 1954 and most of the 1955 season due to military service while serving in Korea.

Following his majors career, Roselli played for Triple-A Hawaii Islanders in 1963, his last baseball season. After retiring, he worked as a salesman and also coached youth baseball teams.
