Gil Britton

Gil Britton, born in 1891, was a professional baseball player who briefly appeared in the major leagues during the 1913 season. His career spanned from September 20 to September 23 of that year, during which he played a total of three games. Despite the short duration of his time in the majors, Britton's participation in the sport during this era reflects the transient nature of many early 20th-century baseball careers, particularly for players who may not have had the opportunity to showcase their talents over a longer span. As a position player, Britton’s major league statistics remained unremarkable, as he finished his career with zero hits, home runs, or runs batted in, resulting in a batting average of .0. His lack of statistical production highlights the challenges faced by players in that era, where competition was fierce and opportunities were limited. While Britton may not have left a significant mark on the statistical landscape of baseball, his brief stint in the majors serves as a reminder of the many players who contributed to the sport's rich history, often without the accolades that accompany more prominent figures.
