context_page_description: Ezra Millington "Salt Rock" Midkiff was a Major League Baseball third baseman who played in 1909 with the Cincinnati Reds and in 1912 and 1913 with the New York Highlanders. Midkiff was nicknamed "Salt Rock" due to his birthplace of Salt Rock, West Virginia.
context_section_description: Midkiff was 26 years old when he made his Major League debut on October 5, 1909, with the Cincinnati Reds. After spending time in the minor leagues, Midkiff was acquired by the Highlanders from the San Antonio Bronchos of the Texas League in 1912. Midkiff spent 1913 as the starting third baseman for the Yankees, but Fritz Maisel took the job midway through the season, and Midkiff was sold to the minor league Baltimore Orioles in August.
