Murray was a backup catcher to Jim Hegan in Cleveland, Joe Tipton in Philadelphia, and Clint Courtney in Baltimore. As a member of the Athletics in 1953, he shared the regular catcher's job with Joe Astroth and set personal bests in every major statistical category, including games played (84), hits (76), home runs (six), runs batted in (41) and batting average (.284). All told, he batted .252 with eight homers and 184 hits during his MLB career. He later managed in minor league baseball in the San Francisco Giants' organization.

Murray was a talented catcher with a big bat and a strong throwing arm. In his short career he allowed very few stolen bases (he notched 69 "caught stealings" in 1,803 innings caught) and quickly gained recognition as a gun slinger at the plate. Murray was known for his colorful antics with the umpires, which may have earned him the nickname "Deacon" for the way he preached to the umps. On one occasion, he stopped in the middle of a game and removed all of his catchers' gear to kneel at home plate and pray to the Lord to give the umpire eyesight because he must be blind, Murray was promptly ejected from the game.
