[edit] Biographical Information

Ed Crosby was a lefthanded-hitting infielder with little power who played parts of six big league seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals, Cincinnati Reds, and Cleveland Indians between 1970 and 1976.

A second-round pick in 1969, he was already in the majors by 1970 and had his most major league at-bats in 1972 as a frequently-used infield back-up behind Dal Maxvill, Joe Torre, and Ted Sizemore.

Ed is the father of Bobby Crosby, and another son Blake Crosby is a shortstop at Sacramento State.

• High school teammate of Bobby Grich.
