Olen Edward "Ode" Voigt (January 29, 1899 – April 7, 1970) was a pitcher in Major League Baseball. He was born in Wheaton, Illinois, and played baseball at Wheaton High School and the University of Illinois.[1]
Voigt started his professional baseball career in 1919 with the Rockford Rox of the Illinois–Indiana–Iowa League.[2] The following season, he went 17-17 on the mound with a 2.79 earned run average. He also led the league with 303 innings pitched.[3]
In 1921, Voigt pitched well again and moved up to the class A Texas League, where he struggled. He improved the next season, though. In 1923, he set career-highs with 19 wins and 332 innings pitched and led his Denver Bears team in both categories.[4] That performance earned him a roster spot on the major league St. Louis Browns in the spring of 1924.
Voigt appeared in eight major league games, including one start, and went 1-0 with a 5.51 ERA.[5] His final game was on May 31, after which he returned to the Western League and won 12 games the rest of the year.[2]
Voigt did not play in organized baseball after 1924. He died at the age of 71 in Scottsdale, Arizona.[5]
