Chris Knapp (baseball)

Robert Christian Knapp (born September 16, 1953 in Cherry Point, North Carolina) is a former right-handed pitcher for the Chicago White Sox and California Angels. After graduating from Central Michigan University, Knapp was selected in the first round of the 1975 amateur entry draft by the White Sox. He played parts of the 1975, 1976, and 1977 seasons with the White Sox, although most of his time in those years was spent in the White Sox farm system. After the 1977 season, he was traded to the Angels as part of the deal that sent Bobby Bonds to the White Sox. He spent three seasons as a starter for the Angels before being sent to play for minor league affiliates in 1981. Knapp finished his career in the 1983 season, going winless in four starts.^[1]
