Donald Gary Durham (born March 21, 1949) is a former pitcher in Major League Baseball. He played for the St. Louis Cardinals and Texas Rangers.[1]
Born in Yosemite, Kentucky, Durham attended Western Kentucky University and was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 7th round of the 1970 MLB Draft.
Durham holds the MLB record for most at-bats for a player who hit .500 or better in a career as he collected 7 hits in 14 career at-bats for an even .500 batting average.[citation needed]
After his baseball career ended, Durham worked as president of an auto body shop in Nashville. He established the Don Durham Baseball Scholarship Fund to serve Western Kentucky Hilltoppers baseball players.[2]
