Short Players Part VI

This guy might be the shortest lefty to get to the big leagues in a very long time. I happened to meet him when he was in high A two years ago. He is listed at 5-7 and was an undrafted FA out of high school in 2007. Tim Collins has started the season very well so far for KC.

Richie Lewis. I think he was the second or third shortest MLB Pitcher (not 100% sure about that). He is 5'6"

If he's listed at 5-7, there a reasonable chance that he is 5-5 or 5-6.

Great to see him have success.
