The first two names that popped in my head were Joe Wood (later became position player) and Mike Hampton. Carl Mays deserves mention as well.

In 1969 Ken Brett hit a home run in 10 at bats. They made an APBA "extra" card you could order and he was devastating. It was absurd. Rules had to be enacted limiting his use. He actually hit pretty well throughout his career, ending up with a .262 average.

Peter - I never got into APBA in spite of several friends highly recommending it. I definitely should have taken their advise. That Ken Brett 'fluke' was fascinating to read.
I forgot to add Wes Ferrell .
