Pat Venditte Biography

Pat Venditte is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on June 30, 1985 in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. In the course of the season, Venditte was named to the first team of All-Conference distinction to the Missouri Valley Conference and was named Most Valuable Player of the conference tournament. Creighton took home its first conference championship. Venditte was named on the All-American third team for the season of 2007. Venditte was also named Midwest Region Pitcher of the Year by the online publication InsidePitching.com. Following his season ended, he played for the collegiate summer baseball with the Wisconsin Woodchucks in the Northwoods League. As the Woodchucks closer, he posted an overall record of 4-1, with 9 saves with having a 1.76 ERA, and a .154 batter’s batting average.

Venditte’s rare ambidextrous abilities prompted the Professional Baseball Umpire Corporation (PBUC) to issue a new rule for dealing with ambidextrous pitchers, limiting the number of times that a switch-pitcher and switch-hitter can change sides during one at-bat. After consulting with a variety of sources, including the Major League Baseball Rules Committee, the PBUC issued its new guidelines on July 3, 2008. OBR Rule 5.08(f), known as the “Pat Venditte Rule”, currently reads:

Venditte completed the 2008 season with 23 saves in 30 appearances with a 0.83 ERA. His performance earned him a spot on the New York–Penn League All-Star team and the Minor League Baseball Yearly Award for Best Short-Season Reliever.

On June 8th in 2007 The New York Yankees selected Venditte in the 45th round of the 2007 Major League Baseball draft with the number 1,345th overall. Venditte was shocked by the selection, as he had informed the scouts of all major leagues that he was planning to go back to Creighton for his senior season. The Yankees reached out to him during thirtyth-round of draft asking him to estimate the amount it would cost to acquire the player, but Venditte was unable to decide on the price. In the end, the Yankees did not have the chance to take on Venditte before the 15th of August day deadline for signing. Venditte admitted that he wasn’t ready to become a professional, and wanted to improve his the velocity of his left arm, and then throw another pitch using his right.

Venditte became a member of his team Creighton Bluejays in 2005 as an undrafted player. Creighton Head coach Ed Servais did not allow Venditte to pitch using both arms during the five appearances in his freshman year as he was concerned that the spectacle could turn into an “circus”. Beginning with his sophomore year, Venditte regularly used both arms during collegiate games He recorded an 3.02 earned run-adjusted (ERA) in 62/3 innings pitched. Following the season, Venditte played in the collegiate summer league in the Quincy Gems of the Central Illinois Collegiate League.

In his junior year, Venditte appeared in 36 of Creighton’s 58 games before appearing in the 2007 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament. His opponents batting average (OBA) of .185 was the fourth-best in the nation, and he posted a 1.85 ERA. At one point during the season, Venditte had a streak of ​43 ⁄3 scoreless innings. On May 28, 2007, Collegiate Baseball named Venditte the national player of the week.

His initial assignment was to the Staten Island Yankees of the Class-A Short-Season New York–Penn League. On June 19, 2008, in his first minor league appearance with Staten Island against the Brooklyn Cyclones, Venditte pitched a scoreless ninth inning for a Yankees win. Before Venditte faced the last Cyclone batter, Ralph Henriquez, a switch-hitter, upon choosing to bat left- or right-handed (with Venditte subsequently choosing to pitch with the same hand), Henriquez would then go to the other side of the plate (and adjust his shin guard—which is worn on the front leg when a batter takes his stance) to regain the advantage. After this had happened several times the teams appealed to the umpiring crew, which ruled that the batter must first select from which side of the plate he intended to hit, and that the pitcher would then be allowed to declare with which arm he would pitch (the Venditte Rule, adopted several weeks later by the umpires’ association, would make the opposite determination and preserve the traditional right of a switch-hitter to choose an opposite-handed match-up). Venditte subsequently struck out Henriquez, who slammed his bat against the dirt, to end the game. A film of the incident received notoriety on the Internet and the tale was recounted in a number of places, including within the baseball compendium Rollie’s Follies.

When using his right arm, Venditte used to deliver over the top and could throw a slider and curveball, as well as a fastball at around 85 miles per hour (137 km/h) that topped out at 87 miles per hour (140 km/h). His left-handed delivery is side-armed in which he throws a slider and a fastball that reaches the low-to-mid 80’s. Following Venditte’s 2012 surgery on his right shoulder, Gil Patterson worked with him on a right-handed sidearm delivery. Although the injury slowed his right arm, Venditte’s delivery is now almost identical from either side, and observers have mistaken him for identical twins because he warms up one hand with the starting pitchers and the other with the relievers. Venditte is only ambidextrous when pitching. Despite batting left-handed, he is exclusively right-handed when performing tasks such as swinging a golf club, writing, or eating.
