Rex David Johnston (born November 8, 1937, at Colton, California) is a retired American professional athlete who played Major League Baseball for the Pittsburgh Pirates and in the National Football League for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He is the only athlete to have played for each of Pittsburgh's iconic baseball and football teams.〔(O'Neill, Brian, "Fleeting fame of the last man to play for the Pirates and Steelers," ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette,'' August 22, 2004 )〕 He attended the University of Southern California, where he played both sports, standing tall and weighing during his active career. ==Ten games with 1964 Pirates== An outfielder who threw and batted right-handed, Johnston signed with the Pirates in 1959 and spent five full seasons in Pittsburgh's minor league system before making the Bucs' varsity out of spring training in . MLB teams were then allowed to carry three extra players on their roster for the first 30 days of the season, and Johnston appeared in 14 games as a leftfielder, centerfielder, pinch hitter and pinch runner between April 15 and May 11. He logged ten plate appearances and drew three bases on balls, but went hitless in seven at bats. In his only Major League start, as a centerfielder on May 2 against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium, Johnston came to the plate five times against southpaws Curt Simmons and Bobby Shantz; he walked once, reached on an error, and grounded out three times.〔(1964-5-2 box score from Retrosheet )〕 His baseball career continued at the Triple-A level through 1966, and he batted .266 with 59 home runs in 938 minor league games.〔(Minor league statistics from Baseball Reference )〕
