Kurt Bevacqua
Kurt Anthony Bevacqua (; born January 23, 1947) is a former Major League Baseball player best remembered for his performance in the 1984 World Series. A career back-up infielder with a .236 career batting average, he rose to the occasion with two home runs and a .412 batting average as the San Diego Padres' designated hitter in the fall classic. He also played for the Mayaguez Indians in the Puerto Rican Professional Baseball League from 1977 to 1981.
==Early years==
Bevacqua was originally drafted by the New York Mets in the 32nd round of the 1966 Major League Baseball Draft and the Atlanta Braves in the sixth round of the January Secondary phase of the 1967 Major League Baseball Draft, but did not sign with either team. After leading Miami Dade College to the FJCC baseball tournament, he finally signed with the Cincinnati Reds, who selected him in the twelfth round of the secondary phase of the June draft.
He was immediately a utility player, playing each infield position and the outfield while in the Reds' farm system. He was traded to the Cleveland Indians for outfielder Buddy Bradford on May 8, , and made his big league debut shortly afterwards. Though he batted just .204 his rookie season, his versatility on the field proved valuable to the Indians. He appeared in 55 games, playing second, third, shortstop and both corner outfield positions, and earned the nickname "Dirty Kurt" for routinely having the dirtiest uniform on the team.
Bevacqua spent most of the season with the Portland Beavers of the Pacific Coast League, where he batted .313 with nine home runs and 72 runs batted in. He returned to the Indians that September, but batted just .114 in nineteen games. After the season, he was traded to the Kansas City Royals for pitcher Mike Hedlund.
