Timothy Wayne Barrett (born January 24, 1961) is a former professional baseball pitcher. He appeared in four games in Major League Baseball for the Montreal Expos in 1988, all as a relief pitcher.

Career

Barrett spent three seasons at Indiana State University, assuming the roles of 'staff ace' from Zane Smith; he was an All-Missouri Valley Conference player (1983), leading the Sycamores to the 1983 MVC title and the NCAA National Tournament. He remains in the Top Ten in school history in several categories. He spent his freshman season at Wabash Valley College.

Barrett spent 6 seasons (1983–88) in the Montreal organization; he spent most of his

Denver Bears.[1]
All told, he spent 5 seasons with Indianapolis, with a W/L record of 19–6, 12 Saves, an ERA of 3.45, and three titles.

Barrett finished his career in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization, leading the Albuquerque Dukes to the Pacific Coast League Championship Series.

Over the course of his minor league career, Barrett accumulated a pitching record of 52–27, 3.37 ERA, 16 Saves, 5 Shutouts, and 509 Strikeouts. On August 7, 1988, he picked up his one and only big league save, though it was by no means a thing of beauty. He closed out the game, pitching the final 3 innings, allowing 4 hits and 3 earned runs in a 11–5 victory over the Cardinals.[2]
