Timeline

1977

Joseph Ronald Beimel (pronounced "BUY mul") (born April 19, 1977) is an American former professional baseball pitcher.

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Pittsburgh Pirates, Minnesota Twins, Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Los Angeles Dodgers, Washington Nationals, Seattle Mariners, and Colorado Rockies.

Beimel attended St. Marys Area High School and was a letterman in football, wrestling, basketball, and baseball.

He played two seasons of junior college baseball at Allegany College of Maryland in Cumberland, Maryland and one season at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh.

Six former Allegany College players have made it to Major League Baseball.

Beimel was the fifth Major League Baseball player to come out of the Allegany College of Maryland program.

The five other Allegany Trojans to make the big leagues were John Kruk, Stan Belinda, Steve Kline, Scott Seabol and Scott Patterson.

At Allegany, Beimel played for Junior College Hall of Fame Coach Steve Bazarnic.

During Beimel's years at Allegany the Trojans advanced to the Junior College World Series both seasons.

At Duquesne University he was the team leader in wins and complete games and was second on the staff in strikeouts and ERA.

1996

Beimel was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 26th round of the 1996 Draft after his freshman year in college but chose to remain in school.

1998

He was later selected in the 18th round of the 1998 draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates, after his junior year, and signed with the Pirates on June 5, 1998.

Beimel is the first pitcher drafted by the Pirates out of the Pittsburgh-based Duquesne University; he is the only such pitcher to have made it to the Major Leagues.

Beimel's minor league stops in the Pirates organization included their development level team in Erie (1998, 1–4, 6.32, 6 starts), their "A" ball team in Hickory (1999, 5–11, 4.43, 22 starts), their "A+" team in Lynchburg (2000, 10–6, 3.36, 18 starts, 2 CGs), and their "AA" team in Altoona (1-6, 4.16, 10 starts, 1 CG).

2001

After a strong spring,Beimel made the Pirates' major league roster at the start of the 2001 season.

He made his major league debut as the starting pitcher on April 8, 2001, against the Houston Astros, pitching five innings, allowing two runs, and recording his first career victory.

Beimel appeared as both a starter and a reliever that season, finishing with a record of 7–11, ERA of 5.23 in 42 appearances, 15 of them as a starter.

2002

Beimel made another eight starts on the 2002 squad but was primarily used as a relief pitcher thereafter.

After finishing both the 2002 and 2003 seasons in the Pirates bullpen as an average middle reliever, the Pirates released him before the start of the 2004 season.

2004

Beimel was subsequently signed as a free agent by the Minnesota Twins on April 11, 2004.

He spent the bulk of the season with Minnesota's Class-AAA Minor League affiliate in Rochester, where he had a mediocre season (2-4, 6.97, in 49 appearances).

Beimel made just three relief appearances for the Twins as a September call-up and then was released after the season.

Beimel was signed as a free agent by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on November 5, 2004, and spent most of the 2005 season with their AAA team the Durham Bulls, going 1–2 with a 3.93 ERA in 48 games.

He made several trips to the big leagues to pitch for the Devil Rays during the season, making seven appearances with an era of 3.27.

2006

In 2006, Beimel was signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers and became a valuable member of their relief corps, with a 2.96 ERA in 62 appearances, primarily as a late inning left-handed specialist.

However, he was also effective enough against right-handed batters to be used as both a set-up man and emergency closer, and proved remarkably effective when put into games to work the Dodgers out of jams.

Beimel wore #97 for the Dodgers, which at the time was the highest number ever used by a Dodger.

The number represents the year of his first child's birth.

His successful season ended on a down note; right before 2006 divisional series between the Dodgers and New York Mets began, Beimel cut his hand on glass at a bar in New York.

Due to his injury, Beimel was left off the series roster.

At first he claimed that it happened in his hotel room before divulging the truth after the Dodgers lost to the Mets three games to none.

Beimel was completely sober for 15 months following the incident and now drinks only occasionally.

2007

During the 2007 season, Beimel set a record for the Dodgers by making 83 appearances, the most by a left-handed pitcher in the Dodgers' history.

During his first two years with the Dodgers, Beimel became known for his ability to get Barry Bonds out.

Beimel held Bonds to 1–16 at the plate, with the one hit being a solo home run.

He also walked Bonds only three times.

After the arrival of new manager Joe Torre, Beimel was forced to cut his hair, a situation similar to one Stump Merrill had with Torre's successor as Dodger manager, Don Mattingly, when Merrill managed Mattingly with the New York Yankees.

2008

Joe gained a cult following in 2008 in a series of fan-made YouTube videos.

When the Dodgers conducted their second annual online fan vote during Spring Training to determine what player should be immortalized as part of the team's bobblehead promotions, Beimel took home the honors for 2008 after a strong Internet turnout, including a campaign that was orchestrated by his parents, Ron and Marge Beimel.

2009

On March 18, 2009, Beimel and the Washington Nationals agreed to a one-year $2 million deal; he became their eighth-inning set up man.
