Description
Brian Tate Milner is a former professional baseball player. He played two games in Major League Baseball for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1978 as a catcher.
Milner was drafted in the 7th round of the 1978 amateur draft by the Toronto Blue Jays and called up almost immediately, the only catcher only to be brought directly to the major leagues after being signed since the draft began in 1965. Making his debut at the age of eighteen years and seven months, he remains the youngest person to play for the team. Milner played in two games in June 1978, getting four hits, including a triple, in nine at bats, scoring three runs, and picking up two RBIs.
Milner was sent down to the rookie league Medicine Hat Blue Jays shortly thereafter, where he hit .337. He played four more seasons in the minor leagues, but suffered a series of injuries and never played in the major leagues again. He later served as a hitting coach in the New York Yankees organization from 1991?95, and as a scout for the Chicago Cubs from 1996-2007. [More at Wikipedia]
