Turning pro, he was one of the few Salvadorans in the minor leagues in the 20th Century. He hit .309/.427/.427 in 23 games for the 1953 Pampa Oilers, though he fielded .842 at third base. [2] He was 0 for 11 for the '54 Iola Indians before a knee injury ended his US career. [3] He then played for the Salvadoran softball national team. [4] He had numerous relatives who played baseball in El Salvador. [5]
