Pete Scott

Floyd John "Pete" Scott (December 21, 1897 – May 3, 1953) was a Major League Baseball player, who played outfielder for three seasons from 1926 - 1928.

He made his debut with the Chicago Cubs during the 1926 season. In the 1927 off-season, he was traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates (along with Sparky Adams) for future Hall of Famer Hazen "Kiki" Cuyler.

In 208 games over three seasons, Scott posted a .303 batting average (158-for-522) with 95 runs, 41 doubles, 6 triples, 8 home runs, 88 RBIs, 59 bases on balls, .377 on-base percentage and .450 slugging percentage. He finished his career with a .975 fielding percentage, playing primarily at right and left field.

On July 8, 1924, Pete Scott, along with Bill Skiff, was questioned during a coroner's inquest about a young woman who fell down a freight elevator shaft after visiting his room. At the time, both were players for the Kansas City Blues, a minor league team.

Scott died on May 3, 1953, in Daly City, California. Provided by Wikipedia
