Enrique Romo Navarro (born July 15, 1947) is a Mexican former professional baseball relief pitcher who played for the Seattle Mariners (1977–78) and Pittsburgh Pirates (1979–82).
He was born in Santa Rosalía, Baja California Sur, and is the younger brother of Vicente Romo, who also pitched in the majors.
Romo pitched 11 seasons in Mexican baseball prior to making his major league debut for the Seattle Mariners in 1977 at the age of 29.
[1] His most productive season came with the 1979 World Series Champions, with whom he had a 10–5 mark, a 2.99 ERA, career-highs in games (84) and innings (129.3), exclusively as a set-up man for closer Kent Tekulve.
In 1983, Romo failed to report to spring training, first indicating he would arrive late due to one of his children dealing with chicken pox,[2] and then later not attending at all, announcing the intention to join an unsanctioned league in Mexico.
