[edit] Biographical Information
Jeff Suppan has hit two home runs in his career: one in the 2005 regular season, and one in the 2006 NLCS. Strangely, both were off the same pitcher, Steve Trachsel of the New York Mets. He was named MVP of the 2006 NLCS thanks to two outstanding starts against the Mets, helping the St. Louis Cardinals to victory in seven games, and sending them to their second World Series in three years.
He graduated from Crespi High School in Encino, CA in 1993. Jeff was the first round selection of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the expansion draft on 11-18-1997, the third selection overall.
After the season, he signed a free agent contract with the Milwaukee Brewers.
