[edit] Biographical Information
Larry Littleton and Mike Potter hold the all-time non-pitcher record of most career ABs without a hit. Both went 0 for 23. Randy Tate, 0 for 41, holds the pitcher record.
Littleton is the cousin of Gordy Coleman.
Littleton was a first round pick in 1976 out of the University of Georgia. The University of Georgia had gone quite a while without having a major leaguer, after having quite a few between 1910-60. Jim Umbricht played through 1963, and was the only player from the school in the majors from 1960-80. Littleton broke the drought by coming to the majors in 1981 and Glenn Davis followed in 1984.
He played in the minors from 1976, including with Toledo in 1982.
After baseball he worked for Merrill Lynch.
