Kevin Wade Batiste (October 21, 1966 – April 2, 2024) was an American professional baseball player. Batiste played for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1989.
Batiste was drafted by the Blue Jays in the 2nd round of the 1985 amateur draft.
Brought up to the majors in June 1989, he played in 6 games between June 13 and 21. On June 24, Batiste was sent back down to the minor leagues, but while making the journey to join the Knoxville Blue Jays, he was arrested at Oakland International Airport for carrying a loaded handgun in his checked luggage.[1] He spent about 12 hours in an Oakland city jail before the Jays paid his $13,000 bail.[2] He resumed his career in the minors, and never returned to the major leagues.
Batiste died in Tomball, Texas, on April 2, 2024, at the age of 57.[3]
