Eugene Lewis Freese (January 8, 1934 – June 18, 2013) was an American professional baseball third baseman, who was widely noted as a journeyman. Freese played in Major League Baseball for the Pittsburgh Pirates (twice), St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, Chicago White Sox (twice), Cincinnati Reds, and Houston Astros, for 12 seasons (1955–1966). Freese's career batting average stands at .254, in 1,115 games played, with 115 home runs and 432 runs batted in (RBI). During his playing days, he was listed as 5 feet 11 inches (1.80 m) tall, weighing 175 pounds (79 kg); Freese batted and threw right-handed. His career was derailed at its peak, when he suffered a broken ankle before the 1962 season. His teammates nicknamed him "Augie" as a Pirate rookie, in 1955, after umpire Augie Donatelli, who was calling balls and strikes in Freese's first big league game. During his Major League career, Freese was traded or had his contract rights sold a total of seven times.
