"And, my dad played one year of pro ball with the Salt Lake City Trappers," Dustin Hagy told The News Journal, "so he is excited for me to have that experience."
The older Hagy's pro experience lasted that one season in Utah. The younger Hagy, however, never made it.
Jeff Hagy's pro experience began and ended in 1990, signed by the independent Salt Lake City Trappers apparently out of UNLV.
Hagy had been a starter in college, but turned reliever in an early game with Salt Lake City, The Salt Lake Tribune wrote. He came on to record a crucial strike out.
"I liked (relieving) because I didn't have time to think too much," Hagy told The Tribune.
Hagy then got into another June game and gave up two runs, one earned, in two innings of work, then two no-hit innings in a July game.
Then, in an August game, two crucial hits led to a Hagy loss, The Tribune wrote.
"The hits just happened to find the right spots," Hagy told The Tribune. "I jammed them both times - did exactly what I wanted - and they just found their way through. It's especially disappointing because the balls weren't hit hard."
Hagy got into 16 games overall for Salt Lake City. He started one. He went 0-1, with a 4.91 ERA to mark the extent of his career.
