Milt Shoffner

Milburn James Shoffner (November 13, 1905 – January 19, 1978) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher.

Despite getting off to a good start in 1939, Shoffner was waived by the Bees and claimed by the Cincinnati Reds.

The following season, Shoffner had a rougher go, as his ERA slipped back to 5.63 and he was mostly limited to mop-up duty.

During the offseason, Shoffner was traded to the New York Giants for infielder Wayne Ambler, and after pitching one last season in the minors he retired.

Following his playing days, Shoffner worked as a minor league baseball umpire in the late 1940s and as a bar owner in the early 1950s.
