Lifetime OBA: 1.000

Archibald "Moonlight" Graham had no OBA or BA. He hit a sac fly in his only at bat. So, he's got that going for him.

But, seriously, that would suck. He made it to his dream, and on the first pitch, got knocked out of the game. If you strike out, get sent to the minors and never make it back, that's one thing. But to lose your chance like this, that stinks.
