Biographical Information

Victor Rosario is not to be confused with a number of other players named "Victor Rosario", and one even with the same mother's name, "Victor Rosario Rivera". He is the only one of the group to make it to the major leagues, however.

He played only one season in the majors, going 1 for 7 in 9 games for the Atlanta Braves at the end of the 1990 season, but was involved in a number of trades.
