Eddie Gaedel (1925-1961) was a 3'7" midget who went to the plate one time in his major league "career" as a member of the 1951 St. Louis Browns, wearing uniform number 1/8. After a long delay, he was allowed to remain as a batter and walked on four pitches. Gaedel was promptly removed for a pinch runner. The whole situation was a publicity stunt by owner Bill Veeck.
