Floyd Weaver was a right-handed pitcher from Ben Franklin, Texas, who stood 6 feet 4 inches. He starred at Pecan Gap High School and then Paris Junior College, where on May 10, 1961 he struck out 21 batters in a nine-inning game at Grand Junction, Colorado, a mark that still stands as a collegiate record. The Cleveland Indians signed him that year, and he made his major league debut on September 30, 1962. He returned to Cleveland's roster in 1965, then finished his career with the Chicago White Sox in 1970 and the Milwaukee Brewers in 1971, his last appearance coming on September 26, 1971. Across four big-league seasons he appeared in 85 games, working almost exclusively out of the bullpen. He went 4-5 with a 5.21 ERA over 155 1/3 innings. He died in Texas on November 17, 2008, at age 67.
