Career
Pike batted and threw left-handed. Pike"s major league career, statistically speaking, was only slightly different than that of Red Bluhm, Eddie Gaedel, or Moonlight Graham. On August 27, 1877, he appeared in one game for the Brooklyn Hartfords of the National League.
Pike connected one hit in four at bats in his only game for a.250 batting average, but he made an error in the outfield.
That same year, he also served as an umpire in the National Association.
