Lou Bevil

Bevil's professional career began in 1940 and he was recalled to Washington after completing three minor-league seasons. At the age of 19, Bevil was the second-youngest player in the American League in 1942. In his debut, he was the starting pitcher against the Chicago White Sox on September 2 at Griffith Stadium. But he registered only one out, and permitted four runs on four hits and one base on balls before being relieved by Bill Zuber. Bevil was charged with the eventual 7–6 defeat, his only MLB pitching decision. He appeared in three more games, all in relief, before the end of the 1942 campaign. He then joined the United States Army for World War II military service.
He returned to professional baseball, but not the major leagues, in 1946. During his four-game stint with Washington in 1942, Bevil allowed nine hits and 11 bases on balls in 9.mw-parser-output .frac{white-space:nowra…
