Baseball Historian Biography

Cincinnati Reds - Early Baseball History 'At the end of the 1933 season with a batting average of .323 and the record of being one of the best hitting second baseman in the National League, Tony Piet was traded to Cincinnati by the Pittsburgh Pirates to Cincinnati on November 17. His full name is Anthony F. Pietruszka, but it was quickly shortened to Tony Piet. He broke into pro baseball in Texas and the Pirates found him in Wichita, where in 1931 he batted .336 and scored 42 stolen bases. The previous year at Waco, Texas, he had banged out 26 home runs. 'Tony was born in Chicago. He stands 5 feet, 11 inches and weighs around 180 pounds. He bats and throws right-handed.' baseballhistorian.com
