Bobby Cargo

Bobby Cargo, born in 1868, was a professional baseball player whose brief career spanned two games in Major League Baseball during the late 19th century. Cargo made his debut on October 6, 1892, and played his final game the following day, marking a fleeting yet notable moment in the history of the sport. As a position player, he showcased his skills in an era characterized by the transition from the deadball era to a more modern style of play. Throughout his short career, Cargo recorded 1 hit in 2 games, finishing with a batting average of .25. Despite not having the opportunity to significantly impact the game—he did not hit any home runs or drive in runs—his presence in the major leagues during this formative time in baseball history contributes to the rich tapestry of the sport’s early development. Cargo's legacy, while modest in statistical terms, serves as a reminder of the many players who shaped the game in its infancy.
