Willie Arthur Royster (April 11, 1954 – November 23, 2015) was an American former professional baseball player. The catcher spent eleven seasons in minor league baseball, with a brief, four-game Major League trial for the Baltimore Orioles. He threw and batted right-handed, stood tall and weighed . Royster was chosen by the Orioles in the 22nd round of the 1972 Major League Baseball Draft. He played in the minors from 1972–1976 and 1978–1981 — missing the entire 1977 season — until a breakout season with the 1981 Charlotte O's of the Double-A Southern League saw him hit 31 home runs and drive in 88 runs batted in, both career highs.〔(Minor league record from Baseball Reference )〕 Baltimore recalled him after the September 1 roster expansion. In Royster's four MLB games played, he appeared as a late-inning defensive replacement and pinch hitter. In his four big-league at bats, he struck out twice and grounded out twice.〔(Retrosheet )〕 He returned to the minors in 1982, and his pro career ended after the 1983 season. He played all but 66 of his 961 minor-league games in the Orioles' organization. Willie died at home in Ocean View, New Jersey on November 23, 2015 at the age of 61.〔(Willie Royster-obituary )〕 ==References==
