Career highlights and awards

David Lee Coleman (born October 26, 1950 in Dayton, Ohio) is a former outfielder in Major League Baseball who played briefly for the Boston Red Sox during the 1977 season. He batted and threw right handed.

Listed at 6-3, 195 lb., Coleman was a major league player whose career, statistically speaking, was only slightly different than that of Red Bluhm, Eddie Gaedel or Moonlight Graham. In 11 major league games, he scored a run and went hitless in twelve at-bats.

In 1979, Coleman was traded by Boston to the Minnesota Twins for Larry Wolfe, but he never appeared in a major league game again. From 1979 through 1981, he played in the minor leagues on affiliates of the Twins and the New York Yankees, retiring from baseball after the 1981 season.
