James Dunn was the owner of the Cleveland Indians from 1916-1922.
Infielder Ellis Clary was a scout for the Twins for over two decades.
Luis Garcia is a member of both the Venezuelan Hall of Fame and the Caribbean Hall of Fame.
Actor Scott Patterson, best known for his role on The Gilmore Girls, was a minor league pitcher for seven seasons, pitching 373 AAA innings but not reaching the majors. He was in the Yankees and Braves systems.
Brad "the Animal" Lesley was drafted by the Twins in the seventh round of the 1977 January draft, but did not sign.
Quinn Mack is Shane Mack’s brother and got 21 at-bats with Seattle in 1994.
Toby Gardenhire, of course, is the son of the former Twins’ manager. He was a player in the Twins’ minor league system, reaching AAA, and would have been the manager of AAA Rochester in 2020.
We also want to wish a very happy birthday to Rhubarb_Runner.
Additionally, it seems appropriate on this day to mention former minor league players Marty Boryczewski, Ralph Scorca, Mike Weinberg, and Brent Woodall, both of whom were killed in the terrorist attacks of 2001.
