George Uhle was, by trade, a pitcher. For many years in the major leagues, he was at least decent at it. He was part of a World Series winning team in 1920. He has a career ERA of 3.99. He even finished eighth in MVP voting in 1923.
Playing in the era he did, Uhle’s secondary task was hitting. For a pitcher, he was actually pretty decent at it. He finished his career with a .289 batting average in over 1500 at bats. When Uhle came to the Yankees in 1933, he was still good at one aspect of his game.
