Rafael Edgardo Montalvo Torres (born March 31, 1964, Río Piedras, Puerto Rico) is a former Major League Baseball pitcher whose time in the big leagues consisted of only 1 inning in 1 game at the age of 22. He holds the record with several other pitchers for having the shortest career. His one appearance came on Sunday, April 13, 1986, as a member of the Houston Astros. He pitched one inning against the Atlanta Braves and allowed one run, one hit, and two walks. Shortly thereafter he was demoted to the Tucson Toros in the minor leagues. After the Astros reached the 1986 NLCS he was awarded $500 as his share of the winnings.
