[edit] Biographical Information

Scott Fletcher had a nomadic career, was an adequate shortstop and a pretty good second baseman, hit a few singles, walked some and bunted when needed. After retiring as a player, he managed the minor league Charleston River Dogs in 1997. Beginning in 1999, he was an assistant coach at Emory University through 2004.

Fletcher, with over 5,000 major league at-bats, is by far the major leaguer from the University of Toledo with the most major league at-bats through 2006.

Fletcher's father, Richard W. Fletcher, was a minor league pitcher from 1952 to 1959 (Scott was born while his father was managing the Fort Walton Beach Jets). His son, Scott Fletcher, Jr., was drafted by the Houston Astros in the 39th round of the 2007 amateur draft.
