Jeffery Todd Banister was born January 15, 1965 in Weatherford, Oklahoma. He is a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates Major League Baseball organization.

Baseball career

Banister had but one at-bat in his Major League Baseball career, which resulted in a base hit. Subsequently, his career concluded with a perfect 1.000 career batting average.

Banister was called up from the minor leagues on July 23, 1991, because catcher Don Slaught was injured and manager Jim Leyland had him pinch-hit in the eighth inning of that day's game against the Braves in Three Rivers Stadium. Using Cecil Espy's bat, Banister hit a ball from Dan Petry and just beat shortstop Jeff Blauser's throw to first base.

Banister was sent back to the minors but eventually returned as a coach and field coordinator.
