George Frazier (pitcher)
George Frazier (born October 13, 1954, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) is a former Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher. He played for seven different teams over a 10-year career spanning from 1978 to 1987.
Frazier was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 13th round of the 1976 MLB draft. He made his major league debut with the Cardinals in 1978. He was known primarily as a relief pitcher, although he did start some games during his career.
His career included stints with the St. Louis Cardinals (1978), New York Yankees (1981-1983), Cleveland Indians (1984), Chicago Cubs (1984), Philadelphia Phillies (1985-1986), Texas Rangers (1986), and Chicago White Sox (1987).
A notable moment in Frazier's career came during the 1981 World Series with the New York Yankees. He pitched in three games, losing all three, setting a record for most losses by a pitcher in a single World Series. While remembered for those losses, he was a reliable bullpen arm for the Yankees during that period.
After his playing career, Frazier became a baseball analyst, most notably for ESPN. He was known for his outspoken personality and often critical commentary. He also worked for the Colorado Rockies as a broadcaster.
Frazier's son, Parker Frazier, also played professional baseball, reaching the major leagues.
