George A. Bechtel (September 2, 1848 — possibly April 3, 1921) was an American right fielder and pitcher in professional baseball's early history. He played in all five seasons of baseball's first all-professional league, the National Association, and later played in the first season of baseball's first major league, the National League, when the Association folded.[1] In 1876, he became the first player in Major League history to be suspended for life for intentionally losing games for money.[2]
