Timeline

1921

By his 21st birthday, he had been with seven teams.

1927

Elwood Robert Clear (December 14, 1927 – April 6, 2010) was an American minor league baseball infielder, pitcher and manager, and a Major League coach with the California Angels.

1940

He was born in Denver, Colorado, and moved to Los Angeles with his family in 1940.

During his active career, Clear batted and threw right-handed and was listed as 5 ft tall and 170 lb. He was the uncle of former MLB relief pitcher Mark Clear.

1945

Clear began a long playing career with the 1945 Batavia Clippers of the Class D Pennsylvania–Ontario–New York League (PONY League), hitting .222 at age 17.

1946

He returned to California as a member of the Class C Bakersfield Indians in 1946, playing third base and only posting an .838 fielding percentage while batting .266.

The next year, he joined the St. Louis Cardinals' minor-league organization and hit .200 for Lynchburg and .208 for the Decatur, both in Class B leagues.

Clear then attempted a pitching career.

1948

He posted a 17–12 record with a 3.45 ERA for the 1948 Willows Cardinals in the Class D Far West League; he was second in the league in games won to Larry Shepard of Medford, a future colleague as a manager in the Pittsburgh Pirates' farm system of the 1960s.

He also was 0–1 with Class C Fresno of the California League.

1949

Clear spent most of 1949 with the Pocatello Cardinals (11–6, 5.84) and also was back in Lynchburg for one loss.

1950

The 1950 season brought him to the Class A Western League and he went 16–7 with a 3.38 ERA.

He was tied for fourth in the circuit in wins, was fourth with 119 walks and the Omaha Cardinals pitcher led the league with four shutouts.

1951

He struggled with the Cardinals' three top minor league affiliates in 1951, going 1–2, 8.13 for the Houston Buffaloes, 0–4 with a 9.82 ERA for the Columbus Red Birds and 0–1 for the Rochester Red Wings.

After playing on 11 teams by age 24, Clear's career then settled down.

1952

He went 9–12, with a 3.44 ERA for Houston in 1952 and 4–6, with a 3.35 ERA for the 1953 Buffaloes.

1954

Back in Omaha in 1954, Clear went 20–11 with a 2.93 ERA, led the Western League in wins, was fifth in ERA, tied for second with 22 complete games, tied for third with five shutouts, first with 267 innings and first with 114 walks.

1956

He began 1956 in Omaha, but after three games, he was assigned by the parent Cardinals to the Sioux City Soos of the Western League, where on May 15 he became a player-manager at age 27.

On the mound, he went 5–4 with a 6.00 ERA for the Soos.

1957

Clear finally left the Cardinals' chain in 1957, joining the Pirates as the player-manager of the Douglas Copper Kings of the Class C Arizona–Mexico League.

He batted .313 and, on the mound, went 20–11 with a 3.63 ERA.

He was second in the league in ERA behind Don Bruns, tied Candido Andrade for the win lead, and led with 28 complete games (in 31 starts).

Still just 29 years old, he had now played for 13 clubs.

1958

He won 18 of 26 decisions, with a 4.42 ERA, for Douglas in 1958, and helped make history on August 19 when he was hitting fifth for Douglas in a game in which all nine starters homered against the Chihuahua Dorados in a 22–6 rout.

It was Clear's fourth 1958 home run as a hitter; he batted .303 that season and led the Copper Kings to the A–ML championship.

He went 13–8, with a 2.81 ERA for the Idaho Falls Russets the next year.

He then had arguably his best year yet, going 21–6, with a 2.50 ERA for the Grand Forks Chiefs, leading the Northern League in wins and finishing in the top three in ERA.

1976

Then he became a scout and minor-league instructor for 2 seasons, until July 1976, when he officially donned a Major League Baseball uniform for the first time as the Angels' bullpen coach under newly-named manager Norm Sherry.

He held that role for the next 11 full seasons, through, working under Sherry, Dave Garcia, Jim Fregosi, Gene Mauch and John McNamara.

1979

The Angels won three American League West Division championships (1979, and ) during his coaching tenure.

In and, he was joined on the Angels' roster by his nephew Mark, who worked out of Bob Clear's bullpen for his first two seasons in MLB before being traded to the Boston Red Sox.
