Grote played for the Colt 45's in 1963 and 1964, hitting .182/.241/.261 in 103 games, before going on to have a long career with the Mets, Dodgers and Royals. In 1421 games over 16 seasons, Grote had a .252 lifetime batting average and a career .991 fielding percentage and was a two-time All-Star for the Mets.
LHP Darren Oliver (44)
