Timeline
Nelson Augusto Norman (born May 23, 1958) is a Dominican-American former professional baseball player, coach and manager.
Norman was originally signed as a 16-year-old amateur free agent by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1975.
He made his professional debut with the minor league Gulf Coast League Pirates that year, batting .262 in 61 games.
He made his way through their farm system quickly, and by the end of the 1977 season he was playing for the Triple-A Columbus Clippers.
Norman was traded along with Al Oliver from the Pirates to the Rangers in the first four-team blockbuster deal in Major League Baseball history on December 8, 1977 that also involved the Atlanta Braves, New York Mets and a total of eleven players changing teams.
He played in Major League Baseball as a shortstop from 1978 to 1982 for the Texas Rangers and the Pittsburgh Pirates.
He returned to the major leagues in with the Montreal Expos.
After his playing career he continued to serve in minor league baseball as a coach and manager for several professional baseball organizations.
The Mets got from the Braves Willie Montañez and from the Rangers Tom Grieve and Ken Henderson who was sent to New York to complete the transaction three months later on March 15, 1978.
Norman started the 1978 season with the Tucson Toros.
In mid-May, starting shortstop Bert Campaneris was injured, and Norman was called up to the majors to back up replacement Jim Mason.
He made his major league debut on May 20, three days before his 20th birthday.
He entered the game in the sixth inning after the Rangers had pinch-hit for Mason.
He played three innings in the field, handling one chance on defense, before he was lifted for pinch hitter Mike Jorgensen.
Two days later, Norman made his first start and got his first major league hit.
When Campaneris was activated in early June, Norman returned to Tucson.
He spent the rest of the season there, batting .284 with 76 RBIs.
He returned to the major leagues in September, finishing his first season with nine hits in 34 at bats.
In 1979, Norman won the starting shortstop job in spring training, beating out both Campaneris and newcomer Larvell Blanks, who had been acquired from the Cleveland Indians over the winter (Campaneris would be traded to the California Angels) in May.
Norman played in 147 games, but batted just .222 with just 12 extra base hits in 343 at bats.
Norman opened up the 1980 season as the starting shortstop again.
However, by the end of April, he had lost the job to Pepe Frías, who had been acquired from the Atlanta Braves over the winter.
In May, the Rangers signed Bud Harrelson to back up Frías, and Norman, who was hitting .219 in 17 games, was sent down to the minors.
However, due to injury, he played in just 28 games for the Charleston Charlies, and did not play in the majors again that year.
Once again, the Rangers acquired a shortstop over the winter before the 1981 season.
This time, it was Mario Mendoza, acquired in a trade from the Seattle Mariners.
Norman started the season in the minors, playing for the Wichita Aeros.
He batted .246 in 115 games, and earned a September call-up to the Rangers.
He played in just seven games, going 3-for-13 at the plate.
After the season, the Rangers traded Norman back to the Pirates for pitcher Víctor Cruz.
Unfortunately for Norman, the Pirates already had Dale Berra entrenched as their starting shortstop.
During spring training, Norman was beaten out for the backup job by minor league veteran Jim Smith, and for the second consecutive year he opened the year in the minors.
After batting .270 in 134 games for the Portland Beavers, Norman was again called up in September, but this time played in just three games.
He started the final game of the season, going 0-for-3.
In 1983, Norman was demoted to Double-A.
He played the entire season with the Lynn Pirates, where he was moved to second base for most of the year.
He batted .268 and had a career-high (at any level) of five home runs.
