[edit] Biographical Information
Kelvin Chapman was a second baseman who played for the New York Mets in 1979 and 1984 and 1985. He made the team's opening day roster in 1979, but hit only .150 in 35 games and was soon back in AAA, not to be back for 5 years. He spent the entire 1984 season with the Mets, platooning at second base with the left-handed hitting Wally Backman and hitting a decent .289 with a few walks and doubles. In 1985, however, he fell to .175 and was sent back to the minors by the end of July.
During one game with the Mets, Chapman was thrown out at every base.
