John William "Moose" Clabaugh (November 13, 1901 – July 11, 1984) was an American professional baseball outfielder.
But, hampered by defensive deficiencies as an outfielder,[1] he appeared in only 11 Major League games, made one hit in 14 at bats, and returned to the minors for the remainder of his 16-season career.
But his 1926 season, as a member of the Tyler Trojans of the Class D East Texas League, would earn his MLB audition and cement his reputation as a minor-league batsman.
In 121 games played, he hit 62 homers, scored 106 runs, drove in 164 RBI, and batted .376, leading his league in those categories.
[3] At the plate, he collected one hit, a pinch-hit double off Hal Carlson of the Philadelphia Phillies at Baker Bowl on September 9; it was a key blow in a nine-run, ninth-inning rally that gave Brooklyn a 12–6 victory.
