Phil Huffman Biography
Birthday | Jun 20 |
Birth Year | 1958 |
Phil Huffman is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on June 20, 1958 in Freeport, Freeport, United States. Phillip Lee Huffman (born June 20, 1958) is an American former professional baseball pitcher. He played two seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles.
On March 15, 1978, Huffman was part of a massive trade that sent him to the Oakland Athletics, along with Dave Heaverlo, Gary Alexander, John Henry Johnson, Gary Thomasson, Alan Wirth, $300,000 (and Mario Guerrero, who was named later), in exchange for Vida Blue.
Huffman made the Blue Jays’ big-league roster in 1979 and remained with the team for the entire season. Overall, the season was a disappointment, as he went 6-18. He made 31 starts, posted a 5.77 earned-run average and gave up 25 home runs.
In 1980, Huffman was set to start the season with Toronto, but was optioned to the team’s AAA farm club in Syracuse after manager Bobby Mattick chose to go with a four-man rotation. “Phil has added a changeup to his pitching and he’s been one of our top workers,” Mattick told the Globe and Mail in April 1980. “But we want him to get a lot of work and he’ll get it at Syracuse.” Huffman never ended up joining the major-league staff during the 1980 season, however.
Huffman began the 1978 season pitching with the Jersey City A’s in the Eastern League AA league. Partway through the 1978 season, he was promoted to San Francisco’s AAA Vancouver Canadians minor-league club.

On August 15, 1978, Oakland traded Huffman and Willie Horton to the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for Rico Carty. He was subsequently transferred to the Blue Jays’ AAA Syracuse Chiefs farm club.
On August 27, 1979, Huffman pitched what easily was his best game in his major-league career, tossing a one-hitter against the Oakland Athletics in Toronto. Huffman posted his first win at Exhibition Stadium after six losses. Huffman retired the first 11 hitters, faced only 30 batters in total, and gave up the lone hit to Jim Essian in the sixth inning. He also walked Mike Heath and Mario Guerrero. The win was Huffman’s final victory as a major league pitcher. “It’s always great to beat a club you played with,” Huffman said after the game. “I know all those guys over there. As for thinking of a no- hitter, I wasn’t necessarily doing that. It’s tough to pitch a no-hitter. I’m happy I got the shutout and only gave up one hit.”
