Kameron David Loe (born September 10, 1981 in Simi Valley, California) is a professional baseball pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers.
He previously pitched in Major League Baseball for the Texas Rangers. At 6' 9" tall, Loe is one of the tallest players in the game, and also has a 7 foot boa constrictor named Angel[1] which he keeps in the clubhouse. In 2010, he was forced to place Angel in the care of someone else, as the Brewers would not allow the boa in their clubhouse.
Baseball career
Kameron Loe played high school baseball at Granada Hills High School with Ryan Braun. Braun started as a freshman at second base after the varsity starting second baseman showed up late to a meeting. It was Loe's first start of his senior year, and he received the win.[2]
Loe played college baseball at California State University, Northridge from 1999 to 2002, and was drafted by the Rangers in the 20th round of the 2002 Major League Baseball Draft.
In 2005, Loe made 48 appearances, 8 of them starts, compiling a record of 9–6, with a 3.42 ERA. Loe missed much of the 2006 due to a bone bruise in his right elbow.
In late March 2008 he was considered one of three pitchers vying for one long relief spot with the team, along with Josh Rupe and Scott Feldman.[3]
On November 20, 2008, Loe was acquired by the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks.[4]
On December 18, 2009, Loe signed a minor league contract with the Milwaukee Brewers with an invite to spring training.[5]
On June 1, 2010, Loe was called up to the big league roster by the Brewers.
In 2011, he was 4-7 with a 3.50 ERA.[6]
