Biography
Lee Rogers, born in 1913, was a professional baseball pitcher whose career spanned a brief but notable period during the late 1930s. Rogers made his Major League debut on April 27, 1938, and his time in the league concluded on September 29 of the same year. Over the course of his short-lived career, he recorded a win-loss record of 1-3 and posted an earned run average (ERA) of 6.14. Despite the challenges he faced on the mound, Rogers managed to accumulate 18 strikeouts, highlighting his potential as a strikeout artist during a time when pitching was evolving.
Playing in an era characterized by the transition from the deadball era to a more offense-driven approach, Rogers' contributions, albeit limited, reflected the competitive nature of the game during that period.
