Joseph Michael Richardson Orsulak III (born May 31, 1962 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey) is a former Major League Baseball player from 1983 to 1997 for the Pittsburgh Pirates, Baltimore Orioles, New York Mets, Florida Marlins, and Montreal Expos. Orsulak, who threw and batted lefthanded, played mostly in the outfield, although he played some games at first base. On the basepaths, he had better than average speed. Despite his relatively long experience he never played in the post-season.
Orsulak grew up in Parsippany-Troy Hills, New Jersey,[1] where he graduated from Parsippany Hills High School.[2]
