Born November 27, 1936 in Charlottetown, P.E.I., Vern Handrahan was third player from his home province to reach the majors. In total, the 6-foot-2 right-hander played 12 seasons of professional baseball from 1959 to 1970, including eight seasons in Triple-A and in the major leagues for the Kansas City A\u2019s in 1964 and 1966. He finished his pro career with a 3.81 ERA in 1,447 innings in 399 appearances. Prior to his professional career, Handrahan led the Charlottetown Abbies to the Maritime Junior Championship in 1956. After another good year in the local city league, he wrote to several clubs in the import-dominated Halifax & District League offering his services. He eventually tried out and signed with the Stellarton Albions and appeared in 15 games with them and pitched well enough to attract the attention of Milwaukee Braves\u2019 scout Jeff Jones who offered him a pro contract. Handrahan continued to coach baseball at various levels after his retirement. He died on November 2, 2016 in Charlottetown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
