Biography
Jim Duggan was a professional baseball player born in 1885, who made a brief appearance in Major League Baseball on June 29, 1911. Duggan played as a position player, participating in just a single game during his career. Despite the limited opportunity to showcase his skills at the highest level, he contributed to his team by recording one run batted in (RBI) during that game.
Duggan's experience in the major leagues occurred during a time when the game was evolving, transitioning from the deadball era into a more offensively-minded style of play. Although his career statistics included no hits and a batting average of 0.0, his sole game in the majors remains a notable footnote in baseball history, highlighting the unpredictable nature of player careers in the sport. Despite his short tenure, Duggan's participation in the league represents the broader tapestry of early 20th-century baseball and the many players who aspired to reach the pinnacle of the game.
