sal maglie

salvatore anthony maglie -lrb- april 26 , 1917 -- december 28 , 1992 -rrb- was an american major league baseball pitcher .
he played from 1945 to 1958 for the new york giants , cleveland indians , brooklyn dodgers , new york yankees , and st. louis cardinals .

coincidentally , he also sported a five o'clock shadow look .
he also had the distinction of being one of the few players , and only pitcher , to play for all three new york city baseball teams .
during a 10-year major league baseball career , maglie compiled 119 wins , 862 strikeouts , and an 3.15 earned run average .
