Brian Doyle. MLB career BA .161...but a god in the 1978 series
Per Wikipedia: Doyle took the field as a late inning defensive replacement, but for the most part, sat out game one of the World Series with left hander Tommy John pitching. He went 1-for-3 in game two,[8] and hitless in four at bats in game three. In game five, Doyle went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in the Yankees' 12-2 dismantling of the Dodgers. After which, he was featured on the October 23, 1978 cover of Sports Illustrated. In game six, Doyle came to bat in the second inning with runners on first and second, and the Yankees trailing 1-0. He doubled to drive in the first Yankee run. It was his first career extra base hit. He drove in a second run in the sixth. For the 1978 World Series Champion New York Yankees, Doyle batted a team leading .438 with seven hits in sixteen at bats, one double, four runs scored and two RBIs. In the post season overall, he had nine hits in 23 at bats. Compared to the 1978 regular season, in which he only had ten hits (.192 avg.) and six runs scored with no RBIs. He finished second to Bucky Dent in World Series Most Valuable Player Award balloting. Batting behind Doyle, the number nine hitter batted .417 with seven RBIs. The number eight and nine slots in the Yankees' batting order batted .400 with seven runs scored and nine RBIs.

Haha, you stole the guy I was gonna use. -1.2 lifetime WAR. Only playing because Randolph was injured. If you look him up in Baseball Reference, he was barely a serviceable minor league player. Not sure what he was even doing up in the big leagues, let alone starting in the World Series for the Yankees. |

As a Royals fan, that’s the first name that popped into my mind!
And maybe we could add Don Denkinger to this list (Sorry Cardinals fans)![]() ![]()

If I remember correctly, Hatcher also had some moments in the classic Mets/Astros playoff series in 86, though in a losing effort.

I don't think he could hit water if he fell out of a boat!

Interesting that Kurt Bevaqua's last name in Italian means "drink water"...

"I’ll tell you what I think about it. I think that is very, very bad for that man to make an accusation like that. That is terrible,” he started. “I have never, ever, since I managed, ever told a pitcher to throw at anybody, nor will I ever. And if I ever did, I certainly wouldn’t make him throw at a (expletive) .130 hitter like Lefebvre or (expletive) Bevacqua, who couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a (expletive) boat. “And I guaran-(expletive)-tee you this. When I pitched and I was going to pitch against a (expletive) team that had guys on it like Bevacqua, I sent a (expletive) limousine to get the (expletive) to make sure he was in the (expletive) lineup because I kicked that (expletive’s) (expletive) any day of the week. He’s an (expletive) (expletive) big mouth, I’ll tell you that.”

Good recall. In game six with the Astros facing elimination and down 4-3 in the bottom of the 14th inning he homered off Jesse Orosco to prolong the season. Then after the Mets scored 3 in the top of the 16th inning he singled in a run in the bottom of the inning to get the Stros to within one in a game they ended up losing 7-6. 86 play-offs and World Series featured 3 incredible series.
