[edit] Biographical Information
This reserve outfielder from the Bahamas is best remembered for a controversial bunt play in Game 3 of the 1975 World Series. Armbrister was called on to sacrifice in the 10th inning after the Boston Red Sox had rallied to tie the game. His bunt bounced high in front of the plate, and Ed became entangled with Carlton Fisk. Fisk threw wildly into center field, and the eventual winning run would later score. Despite Boston's vehement protests, interference was not called.

- Won two World Series with the Cincinnati Reds (1975 & 1976; he did not play in the 1976 World Series)
