Camilo Carreon (August 6, 1937 – September 2, 1987) was an American Major League Baseball player from 1959 to 1966 for the Chicago White Sox, Cleveland Indians and Baltimore Orioles. His son Mark was also a Major League player. Carreon made his major league debut on September 27, 1959, and played in just the one game for the White Sox that season. He was late reporting to Sarasota, Florida for spring training in 1960, because of service in the U.S. Army.〔''Donovan Pitches In His First Drill'', New York Times, March 8, 1960, Page 39.〕 In June 1960 he was hitting .270 with San Diego Padres (PCL) of the Pacific Coast League.〔''Yankees Now Dismiss White Sox As Contenders in Pennant Race'', New York Times, June 21, 1960, Page 40.〕 Carreon hit a two-run single off Whitey Ford to give Juan Pizarro a 2-1 victory over the New York Yankees on August 15, 1961. The second-inning hit enabled the White Sox to break a 14-game winning streak by Ford.〔''Pizarro Wins, 2-1, On Carreon's Hit'', New York Times, August 16, 1961, Page 23.〕 His best season was in 1963, when he played in 101 games and had a .274 batting average. The White Sox placed Carreon on the disabled list on July 3, 1964 after he tore tendons in his right arm.〔''Injury Sidelines Carreon'', New York Times, July 4, 1964, Page 17.〕 He was part of a three-way trade with the Cleveland Indians and Kansas City Athletics. In the spring of 1965, Carreon was listed as the Indians' second-string catcher, behind Joe Azcue.〔''American League'', New York Times, February 21, 1965, Page S2.〕 He was one of five players assigned by Cleveland to the Portland Beavers of the Pacific Coast League in October 1965.〔''Indians Drop Five Men'', New York Times, October 17, 1965, Page S6.〕 Carreon is buried in the Hermosa Memorial Cemetery in Colton, California. ==See also== * List of second generation MLB players * Chicago White Sox all-time roster 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cam Carreon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
