Biography
George Boehler was a professional baseball pitcher who played in Major League Baseball from 1912 to 1926. Born in 1893, Boehler made his mark during a transitional period in baseball, as the sport was moving away from the deadball era towards a more offensive style of play. Over the course of his career, he compiled a record of 6 wins and 12 losses, with a earned run average (ERA) of 4.71. His ability to strike out batters was evident, finishing his career with a total of 93 strikeouts, although he did not record any saves.
Boehler's career spanned a significant time in baseball history, witnessing the evolution of the game both on and off the field. While he may not have been a dominant figure in the league, his contributions as a pitcher were part of the rich tapestry of early 20th-century baseball. His performance, while modest in terms of statistics, reflected the competitive nature of the era and the challenges faced by pitchers in an evolving game.
