In 1999, when Haney pitched for the Cleveland Indians, he gave up Wade Boggs' 3,000th hit, a home run. That October, Haney was left off the Indians' playoff roster. The decision to exclude him was blamed by some for the team's collapse against the Boston Red Sox in the 1999 American League Division Series.[1]
Lives in Barboursville, Va and graduated from Orange County High School in Orange, Va. and went on to pitch at Charlotte.[citation needed]
