Scott Cary was a professional baseball pitcher whose career spanned the brief but impactful period of 1947. Born in 1923, Cary made his mark in Major League Baseball during a time when the sport was beginning to emerge from the constraints of World War II and transition into a new era of players and strategies. He played for a short stint from May 1, 1947, to September 17, 1947, during which he showcased his talents on the mound. Cary finished his career with a record of 3-1 and an earned run average (ERA) of 5.93, accumulating a total of 25 strikeouts.
