Patrick Alexander "Pat" Gomez (born March 17, 1968) is a former Major League Baseball pitcher. Gomez played for the San Diego Padres 1993 and the San Francisco Giants 1994-1995. He batted and threw left-handed. Pat was a 1986 graduate of San Juan High School, where in his senior season, he fanned 110 batters in 70 innings of work. Having a fast ball that was clocked consistently in the mid-90s, he was drafted that summer in the 4th round by the Chicago Cubs.\n', "

During his time in the minor leagues, he was a 2-time minor league All Star (Carolina League - 1989, Southern League - 1992). One of his fondest memories while in the minor leagues was being a part of the historic 1992 Greenville Braves that won 100 games, a record that still stands today. Pat's contribution was a 7-0 record with an amazingly low 1.13 ERA. His reward was a call-up to the big leagues in time to be a part of the Atlanta Braves winning the National League West division. They then went on to win the National League Championship Series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.\n", "

During the winter of 1992, Pat was traded briefly to the Texas Rangers, then to the San Diego Padres in time for the 1993 season. The 1993 roster included baseball legends like Fred McGriff, Trevor Hoffman, Gary Sheffield, Bruce Hurst, and everyone's favorite Padre, Tony Gwynn. During the 1993 season, Pat posted a 5.14 ERA. During the off-season, Pat found out he had a bone spur on his left elbow, which was operated on and found to be a minor inconvenience at most. During that off-season, he had workouts for the Florida Marlins, the Oakland A's, and the San Francisco Giants.\n", '
