Short Biography

Valmy Thomas (October 21, 1925 – October 16, 2010) was a Major League Baseball catcher. Thomas was the first Virgin Islands native to play in the Majors (his mother gave birth to Thomas in Puerto Rico because of better medical care available there, returning to their native land immediately after his birth). In his five-year career, he played for five different home cities: the New York Giants (1957), the San Francisco Giants (1958), the Philadelphia Phillies (1959), the Baltimore Orioles (1960), and the Cleveland Indians (1961). He was born in Santurce, San Juan, Puerto Rico.
