Gabe Gross

Gabriel Jordan Gross (born October 21, 1979) is an American former professional baseball outfielder who is currently the hitting coach for the Auburn Tigers.

On September 5, 2004, he belted his first major league home run, a grand slam off Oakland Athletics pitcher Justin Duchscherer.

In 38 games, he collected 73 putouts with five assists and one double play in 78 total chances, for a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage.

On December 7, 2005, Gross was traded by the Blue Jays to the Milwaukee Brewers, along with pitchers Dave Bush and Zach Jackson, in exchange for first baseman Lyle Overbay and pitching prospect Ty Taubenheim.

The plan was to have him share time with Tony Gwynn Jr. and Gabe Kapler in center field in 2008 while Mike Cameron served his 25-game suspension.
