Roy Gleason Baseball

[caappy]

Roy William Gleason (born April 9, 1943) is an American former professional baseball player who appeared in eight games in Major League Baseball for the Los Angeles Dodgers late in the 1963 season. An outfielder by trade, he was a switch hitter who threw right-handed. The Dodgers won the 1963 World Series, earning him a World Series ring, but that ring was eventually lost during his time in Vietnam.
In 1967, he was drafted into the United States Army and later served in the Vietnam War with the 9th Infantry Division (Old Reliables) and earned a Purple Heart when he was wounded by enemy forces while on patrol. After his return from Vietnam, he again played in the Dodgers' farm system in 1969 and 1970, although his war injuries had impaired his baseball skills, so he never made it back to the major leagues.
