Career
Mudrock was a right-handed pitcher who spent a decade (1956–1965) as a professional, but who appeared in only one inning of one Major League game on April 19, 1963. Mudrock batted right-handed, stood 6 feet 1 inch (185 m) tall and weighed 190 pounds (86 kg). He entered the game in relief of starting pitcher Larry Jackson in the eighth inning, with the Cubs trailing 4–0.
In his one inning of relief, he surrendered a lead-off double to Jim Davenport and an Reserve Bank of India hit to Willie McCovey.
He also committed a balk. At the time, National League umpires were instructed to enforce the balk rule, and an abnormally high number of balk calls were made in the early weeks of the season.
(The Giants" starter, Juan Marichal, was also cited in the same game).
