Jes�s Mar�a Rojas Alou is a former Major League Baseball outfielder. During a 15-year baseball career, he played for the San Francisco Giants, Houston Astros, Oakland Athletics, and New York Mets. He was the youngest of the trio of baseball-playing brothers that included Felipe and Matty. Alou was considered a better prospect than either of his brothers and received a $4,000 signing bonus. He never hit below .324 in the minors. He made his debut at the end of 1963, and his first game, on September 10, was notable in that all three Alou brothers batted in the same inning. Five days later, for the first time, the three played in the outfield for the Giants at the same time. In his first full year of Major League action in 1964, Alou failed to live up to expectations, hitting only .274 with little power, but on July 10, he went 6?6 with five singles and a home run. Alou was selected by the Montreal Expos in the 1968 MLB expansion draft and then was dealt to Houston. He had his most active season there, hitting .306 in 487 at-bats, but with few walks and little power.
