Bud Zipfel Autographs
Marion Sylvester "Bud" Zipfel (born November 18, 1938) is an American former professional baseball player who appeared in 118 games over two seasons in Major League Baseball for the 1961–1962 Washington Senators. Born in Belleville, Illinois, he was a first baseman and left fielder who batted left-handed, threw right-handed, stood 6 feet 3 inches (1.91 m) tall and weighed 200 pounds (91 kg).
After graduating from Belleville High School in 1956, Zipfel signed with the New York Yankees. He steadily progressed through the Yankees' minor league system over the next five years, showing some potential as a powerful, left-handed-hitting first baseman. He exceeded the 20-homer mark twice, in the Class D New York–Penn League (21 in 1958) and the Class A Eastern League (28 in 1960).
On December 14, 1960, Zipfel was chosen by the Los Angeles Angels in the 29th round of the 1960 Major League Baseball expansion draft and was then immediately traded to the expansion edition of the Senators for infielder Ken Hamlin. Zipfel had an "impressive" spring training with the Senators in 1961 and, after continuing his powerful hitting in the minor leagues - he had his best statistical season in 1961 playing for the Syracuse Chiefs, batting .312 with 18 home runs over 101 games - Zipfel made his major league debut with Washington on July 26, 1961. He remained on the big league squad for the rest of the season as a backup first baseman, but was less impressive, and hit .200 with only four home runs over 50 games.
