Clyde Wright

Clyde Wright's baseball debut was June 15, 1966 and his final game was on September 26, 1975. He was drafted by the California Angels in the 6th round of the 1965 amateur draft. On July 3, 1970 Clyde Wright, while with the California/Anaheim Angels, used only 98 pitches to no-hit the Oakland A's.

Clyde Wright, "Skeeter", was a left handed pitcher. He played with the Anaheim Angels from 1966 until 1773, the Milwaukee Brewers in 1974, and the Texas Rangers in 1975. He was an All Star in 1970.

Wright threw a four-hitter in his major league debut. In 1968 he pitched 25 consecutive innings without allowing a walk.

He was dubbed "Skeeter" by Freddie Frederico because, the trainer said, "You can't call a major leaguer 'Clyde'." --Jane Charnin-Aker
