Mike Mahoney

Mike Mahoney, born in 1972, was a professional baseball player who played primarily as a position player from 2000 to 2005. Over the course of his career, he appeared in 46 games in Major League Baseball, where he recorded 18 hits, including one home run, and drove in 10 runs. Mahoney finished his career with a batting average of .180 and did not register any stolen bases. While Mahoney's career numbers may not reflect the impact made by some of his contemporaries, he played during a dynamic era of baseball marked by the transition from the late 1990s into the mid-2000s. This period was notable for a surge in offensive production, fueled in part by the so-called "steroid era." Despite the challenges of securing a permanent place on a roster in such a competitive environment, Mahoney’s tenacity and dedication to the game left a mark on the teams he played for, as he contributed to the depth and dynamics of their rosters during his time in the league.
