Baseball Birthdays: June thirteenth

Mel Parnell, deft lefty, had a fine Red Sox career.
The ten-year veteran hurler threw a no-no his last year.

Marcel Lachemann pitched two years relief as Oakland A.
Also managed briefly, not as well as bro, Rene.

Ernie Whitt, a catcher, had his best years as a Jay.
He came up with the Red Sox, but a Fisk was in his way.

Jonathan Lucroy is Brewers backstop for good reason.
First catcher with two seven-RBI games in one season.
