Biography

Reichle was a native of Lincoln, Illinois;[1] he first attended Lincoln College, and later the University of Illinois.[2] His college career was interrupted by service in the United States Navy during World War I; he played for the 1918 Great Lakes Navy Bluejackets football team that won the 1919 Rose Bowl.[2] Reichle was also a member of the 1919 Illinois Fighting Illini football team.[3]

In a short professional baseball career, 1922 to 1924, Reichle was primarily an outfielder who also played some games as a first baseman.[4] He appeared in 164 minor league games and 128 major league games.[4]

Reichle's major league debut was on September 19, 1922,[1] appearing for the Boston Red Sox against the Cleveland Indians; he went hitless in four at bats in a 7–4 loss.[5] Reichle got his first major league hit the next day,[6] singling against George Uhle of the Indians in a 5–2 loss.[7] With the 1922 Red Sox, Reichle went 6-for-24 for a .250 batting average in six games with Boston.[1]

Reichle played in 122 games with the 1923 Red Sox,[1] a team that compiled a 61–91 record. On April 20, 1923, Reichle hit the only home run of his career, coming off of Waite Hoyt of the New York Yankees;[8][a] it was also the first home run hit by a visiting player at Yankee Stadium,[3] which had officially opened two days earlier. For the season, Reichle batted .258 with 39 RBIs.[1]

Overall, Reichle appeared in 128 major league games, all with the Red Sox, recording a .257 batting average with one home run and 39 RBIs.[10] In 101 defensive appearances (99 in the outfield, 2 at first base) he posted a .978 fielding average.[10]

Reichle played in six games with the 1923 Milwaukee Badgers of the National Football League at right end.[11][12] He was a second-team selection to the 1923 All-Pro Team by Collyer's Eye.[13]

After his brief professional sports career, Reichle pursued a career in insurance.[2] Per his April 1942 draft registration card, he was employed by Investors Syndicate (present-day Ameriprise Financial) in St. Louis.[14] Reichle died at the age of 70 in Richmond Heights, Missouri,[1] a suburb of St. Louis.

Notes

  1. ^ Reichle's home run actually bounced into the stands,[8] as such hits were considered home runs in the American League prior to 1929;[9] since then, they have been ground rule doubles.
