Kolb appeared in 29 games for the Bucs in 1969, assuming back-up catching duties while batting .081 with three hits in 37 at-bats.
Looking over his career, it’s interesting to see that he played every position during his MLB career except pitcher and shortstop, really serving the term “utility man”.
Over his pro career that spanned 1960 and 1969 (missing the 1961, 1966 & 1967 seasons), he ended up with a .209 batting average, with 94 hits over 450 at-bats in 293 games, playing for the St. Louis Cardinals, Milwaukee Braves, New York Mets and Pirates.
