Biography

Lou Garland was a professional baseball player born in 1905, who played as a position player during a brief career in Major League Baseball. His playing tenure spanned from August 31, 1931, to September 27, 1931, during a time when the sport was evolving and transitioning from the deadball era to a more offense-focused game. Despite the promise that many players of his era exhibited, Garland's major league experience was limited to just seven games. Throughout his brief stint in the majors, Garland faced considerable challenges, finishing his career without a hit, home run, or run batted in, resulting in a batting average of 0.0. While his time in the spotlight was short-lived, Garland's journey reflects the harsh realities many players faced in the early days of professional baseball, where competition was fierce, and opportunities were limited. His story serves as a reminder of the countless players who aspired to make their mark in the game, even if only for a fleeting moment.
