Montie Morton Weaver (professionally known as Monte Weaver[1]) (June 15, 1906 – June 14, 1994) was a Major League Baseball player who played as a pitcher from 1931 to 1939.
Weaver was born June 15, 1906, in Helton, North Carolina.[2]
A 1927 graduate of Emory and Henry College, Weaver went on to earn a master’s degree and teach mathematics at the University of Virginia.[3] He played in the minor leagues for the Durham Bulls in Durham, North Carolina,[3] and was called up by the Washington Senators during the 1931 season.[1]
In 1932, Weaver went 22-10 as a rookie in his first full season, but never won more than 12 games in any subsequent season.[1] In 1939, his final season in the big leagues, he played for the Boston Red Sox.[1]
In 1972, Emory and Henry College inducted him into its Sports Hall of Fame.[3]
