  • General Info
General Information
Description
Oswald Louis "Ossie" Bluege was an American third baseman in Major League Baseball who played his entire career for the Washington Senators from 1922 through 1939. He was a member of the Senators' 1924 World Series championship team, the franchise's only title before moving to Minnesota in 1961. He was discovered by baseball promoter Joe Engel, who managed the Chattanooga Lookouts at Engel Stadium. He made his major league debut on April 24, 1922 and played his final game on July 13, 1939. Bluege batted .272 in his career, but was chiefly known for his defensive ability, leading American League third basemen in double plays in three different seasons. His moonlighting job earned him the nickname "The Accountant" from teammates. Bluege's only All-Star appearance, in 1935, came in a year which saw him primarily play shortstop for Washington. After retiring in 1939, Bluege managed in the minors for four years before taking over the Senators from 1943 to 1947. He compiled a career managerial record of 379-394, with two second-place finishes. In 1948, Bluege was named the Senators' farm director, where his greatest scouting coup was a young Harmon Killebrew.
