Vivian Caroline Kellogg [?Kelly?] was an American baseball player who played first base from 1944 through 1950 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. She batted and threw right-handed. Kellogg was born and raised in Jackson, Michigan. She grew up playing sandlot ball with her neighborhood kids at an early age, most of them boys, but did not start playing organized softball until she was 16. Kellogg graduated from Jackson High School in 1943 and was approached by a scout of the AAGPBL when she was playing softball for the Jackson Regent Cafe team in a state tournament. After school she had played basketball, volleyball, tennis, and field hockey in addition to softball. Kellogg signed a contract offer for $75 a week plus food expenses when she first joined the league, because that figure doubled her pay as a Bell Telephone operator at the time. Kellogg entered the AAGPBL in 1944 with the expansion Minneapolis Millerettes. She hit a .202 batting average in 111 games, including 46 runs batted in while scoring 20 runs.
