Brock Davis was a left-handed-hitting outfielder whose six major-league seasons were divided among Houston, Chicago and Milwaukee. He attended John C. Fremont High School in Los Angeles and California State University, Los Angeles. His schoolmates included future major leaguers Bob Watson, Bobby Tolan, Willie Crawford and Leon McFadden. Houston signed him as an amateur free agent in 1963. Following his rookie season, Davis returned to the club for 1 game in 1964 and 10 in 1966. The Cubs selected him from the Astros in the minor-league draft on December 2, 1968. On December 3, 1971, Chicago sent Davis, Jim Colborn and Earl Stephenson to Milwaukee for Jose Cardenal. In February 1975, the Cubs traded him and Dave LaRoche to Cleveland for Milt Wilcox. His major-league career totaled 242 games, 141 hits and a .260 average, with 12 doubles, 5 triples and 43 runs batted in. He threw left-handed and was listed at 5-foot-10 and 165 pounds.
