Who is Scarborough Green?

Bertrum Scarborough Green is a former Major League Baseball outfielder.

Drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 10th round of the 1992 MLB amateur draft, Green made his Major League Baseball debut with the St. Louis Cardinals on August 2, 1997, and he appeared in his final game on October 1, 2000.

Green was notable for his role as a replacement player during spring training prior to the 1995 season.

Green set a Texas Rangers team record with 5 stolen bases in one game on September 28, 2000. The record stands to this day.

Following his career in baseball, Green pursued a collegiate football career at NCAA Division II Harding University. Green transferred to Division III McMurry University in Abilene, Texas, to play football.

While serving as the football team's punter, wide receiver, and in other positions, Green participated in track and field for McMurry. Green had a strong leg in the 2007 National Champion McMurry University 4x100 relay team, and he added to his All-American titles by running in the 4x400 relay.
