Alex Thomas Michael George (born September 27, 1938) is a retired American professional baseball player. He appeared in five Major League Baseball games at the age of 16 as a shortstop and pinch hitter for the Kansas City Athletics during the season. George batted left-handed, threw right-handed, stood 5feet tall and weighed . He was signed by the Athletics during their first season in Kansas City out of Rockhurst, a local Jesuit high school. All of his Major League appearances took place before his 17th birthday. He struck out in his first Major League plate appearance against relief pitcher Al Papai of the Chicago White Sox,[1] but four days later, on September 20, playing as the A's starting shortstop, he collected his only big league hit, a bunt single off Duke Maas of the Detroit Tigers.[2] Sent to the minor leagues in 1956 for more experience, George never returned to the Majors. His playing career extended through 1963, mostly in the Kansas City system, where he played second base and outfield as well as shortstop and reached double figures in home runs four times in eight seasons.[3]
