Alfred Joseph Niemiec (May 18, 1911 – October 29, 1995) was an American baseball second baseman and shortstop who played two seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) in 1934 and 1936, for the Boston Red Sox and the Philadelphia Athletics, respectively. He has the distinction of having been traded by the Red Sox for Ted Williams.[1] Listed at 5' 11", 158 lb., Niemiec batted and threw right-handed. A native of Meriden, Connecticut, he attended College of the Holy Cross from 1931 to 1933. He is also famous for a precedent-setting legal case about returning veterans of World War II.[2]
