Donald Hugh Ferrarese (born June 19, 1929) is an American former professional baseball pitcher, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Baltimore Orioles, Cleveland Indians, Chicago White Sox, Philadelphia Phillies and St. Louis Cardinals from 1955 to 1962. A left-handed thrower, he batted right-handed. Ferrarese was fairly small, standing at 5 ft 9 in (1.75 m), and weighing 170 pounds (77 kg), during his playing days. The native of Oakland graduated from Acalanes High School in Lafayette, California, and attended Saint Mary's College. His professional baseball career started in 1948 in the Phillies' organization at Class C Stockton of the California League. He was a member of his hometown Oakland Oaks of the top-level Pacific Coast League for all or parts of four seasons between 1949 and 1955, and won 18 games for them in 1954. Ferrarese also missed the 1951 and 1952 campaigns while performing Korean War military service.
