Christopher James Magruder (born April 26, 1977) is a former
Cleveland Indians, and Milwaukee Brewers
.
Magruder was drafted out of the
minor league baseball affiliate, the Triple-A Nashville Sounds. He had served in a backup role as a reserve for the starting outfielders Carlos Lee, Geoff Jenkins, and Brady Clark
.
Perhaps the single most significant moment of his career was his debut with the Indians. His first at bat as a member of the Tribe was a double off the wall in the 8th inning to break up a no-hit bid.
Former National Football League quarterback Jon Kitna is Magruder's first cousin.[2]
