Biography

Kenneth Harold Kuhn (March 20, 1937 – July 16, 2010) was an infielder in Major League Baseball for three seasons. He played for the Cleveland Indians from 1955 to 1957, playing mostly as a shortstop and second baseman, and was classified as a "Bonus Baby".

Early life

Kuhn was a four-sport star (baseball, football, basketball, and track) at Louisville Male High School, noted in 1955 (before Muhammad Ali), as "possibly the greatest all-around athlete ever to come out of Louisville."

Baseball career

After his major league career, he played minor league baseball until 1963, including the Dallas Rangers of the Texas League.

Later life

After retirement from baseball Kuhn worked for various companies, including Kentucky Fried Chicken, Mister Donut and Children's Discovery Centers. In 1999 he moved to Truckee, California and worked at a Lake Tahoe resort.

He died, aged 73, in Layton, Utah, from pancreatic cancer. He was survived by wife Peggy and their four children, Carrie, Amy, Scott and Stan.
