Ryan Sweeney Autographs
Ryan Sweeney is a retired American professional baseball outfielder who was born on February 20, 1985, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He attended Xavier High School and turned down a scholarship offer from the University of Nebraska to pursue his baseball career.
Sweeney was signed by the Chicago White Sox in the 2003 MLB draft and started his professional career with their rookie league team. He moved up the ranks and made his major league debut on September 1, 2006. In 2007, he played his first full season with the White Sox, batting .270 with 13 home runs and 69 runs batted in. He was then traded to the Oakland Athletics in 2008, where he spent the majority of his career. Sweeney was known for his fielding abilities, being named the American League outfield leader in assists in 2010.
After playing for the Boston Red Sox in 2012, Sweeney signed with the Chicago Cubs in 2013 but was released after sustaining a season-ending injury. In 2015, he retired from professional baseball with a career batting average of .276, 23 home runs, and 201 runs batted in. Sweeney may not have had a long MLB career, but his strong defensive abilities made him an essential player on every team he played for.
