Timeline
Alfonso Rafael Garcia (born October 14, 1953) is an American former Major League Baseball infielder of Mexican-American descent.
He was nicknamed "Kiko" by his grandmother when he was a small boy.
He now coaches the 18u NorCal Choppers fast pitch softball team.
Garcia played football and baseball at Ygnacio Valley High School in Concord, California.
He was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the third round of the 1971 Major League Baseball draft.
He was just seventeen years old when he made his professional baseball debut with the Bluefield Orioles in 1971.
He was primarily a shortstop, but the Orioles experimented with him at second base with the Rochester Red Wings in 1975.
That idea was quickly abandoned, and he returned to short in 1976.
Over six seasons in the Orioles' farm system, Garcia batted .261 with twenty home runs and 229 runs batted in.
Garcia received a September call up in 1976.
He made his major league debut in the first game of a September 11 doubleheader with the Milwaukee Brewers.
He got his first major league hit off Jim Colborn in the second game, and came around to score on a Rick Dempsey base hit.
On September 22, he hit his first major league home run off the New York Yankees' Grant Jackson.
He spent the entire 1977 season in the majors backing up perennial Gold Glove shortstop Mark Belanger.
On April 24, he went 4-for-4 and scored the Orioles' only run in a 2-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers.
In 65 games, he batted .221 with two home runs and ten RBIs.
His playing time went up slightly in 1978 (79 games), but his fielding prevented him from supplanting Belanger at short.
On May 11, his ninth inning error allowed the deciding run to score in the Boston Red Sox 5-4 victory over the Orioles.
Belanger would commit just nine errors all season.
Garcia committed sixteen in 538.2 fewer innings.
Doug DeCinces missed 33 games early in the 1979 season with back pain.
Second baseman Rich Dauer shifted to third, and Garcia began seeing more action at second.
Once DeCinces returned, Belanger suffered an ankle injury that kept him out of the lineup for a month.
Filling in for DeCinces and Belanger, Garcia batted .262 with four home runs and five triples in 64 games.
The Orioles went 43-21 over the span to take a three game lead in the American League East.
For the season, he played a career high 126 games, and had career highs in at bats (417), hits (103), doubles (15), triples (9) and home runs (5).
The Orioles, meanwhile, won 102 games, and won the division by eight games over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Just as game one of the 1979 American League Championship Series against the California Angels was set to begin, Garcia's brother, John, was arrested.
He was found in possession of hashish after he was caught trying to scalp tickets to the game.
Garcia sat out game one, but starred in game two.
He had an RBI single and score on Eddie Murray's home run in the second inning, then drove in DeCinces in the third.
Overall, he went 3-for-11 with the two RBIs in the ALCS.
Garcia had just one at bat in the first two games of the 1979 World Series, and struck out in the ninth against Pittsburgh Pirates closer Kent Tekulve.
Garcia led off game three of the World Series with a double.
In the third, he walked, and scored on Benny Ayala's home run.
In the fourth, Garcia came to the plate with the bases loaded.
He lined John Candelaria's pitch into right center field for a bases-clearing triple to give the O's a 5-3 lead.
He would also single in the fifth and had an RBI single in the seventh.
He fell a home run shy of the cycle, but he was 4-for-4 with four RBIs and two runs scored in the Orioles' 8-4 victory.
