Johnnie Lee LeMaster (born June 19, 1954) is a former Major League Baseball infielder. He played for 12 seasons (– and ) for four teams, including 10 seasons for the San Francisco Giants. He batted and threw right-handed. On September 2, 1975 LeMaster became the second player in major league history to hit an inside-the-park home run in his first at bat, during a 7–3 win over the Dodgers. Luke Stuart, who only had three major-league bats, also hit an inside-the-park home run in his first at-bat; it was his only home run. LeMaster hit only 21 home runs during the rest of his career (3,191 at bats). Many will long remember LeMaster for one game in 1979. The shortstop took the field wearing the phrase on his back that Giants fans often welcomed him with; in place of his last name was the word "BOO".〔Hayes, A.J., "SPORTS: Boo-yah! Johnnie LeMaster returns", http://www.sfbg.com/blogs/gsf/2008/05/sports_booyah_welcome_back_joh.html〕 In 1983, LeMaster amassed over 100 hits for the only time in his career, batting .240 and finishing seventh in the National League with 39 stolen bases. During the 1985 season, he played for three teams: the San Francisco Giants, the Cleveland Indians, and the Pittsburgh Pirates; all three teams ended up in last place in their respective divisions.〔Bruce Nash, ''The Baseball Hall of Shame 3''〕 LeMaster was a career .222 hitter with 22 home runs and 229 runs batted in in 1039 games. == References == 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「Johnnie LeMaster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
