Scott Vernon Pose (/ˈpoʊz/; born February 11, 1967) is an American former professional baseball outfielder. He is an alumnus ofDowling Catholic High School in West Des Moines, Iowa and theUniversity of Arkansas.
Drafted by theCincinnati Reds in the 34th round of the1989 Major League Baseball Draft, Pose would make his Major League Baseball debut with theFlorida Marlins on April 5, 1993, and appear in his final game on September 29, 2000.
Pose was a member of the inaugural Marlins 1993 franchise and was the first official batter in Marlins history. Nevertheless, he only appeared in 15 games with the expansion Marlins, as the bulk of his career playing time came later in the decade with theNew York Yankees andKansas City Royals. Pose's career season was in 1999, when he hit .285 as an outfield reserve with the Royals. Despite earning the praise of Royals ManagerTony Muser, Pose's playing time decreased in 2000, as he would start in only three games, appearing almost exclusively as apinch hitter.
Pose portrayed the fictional baseball player "Matt Crane" in the 1999 filmFor Love of the Game starringKevin Costner.
Since 2008, Pose has served as a college baseball analyst for theBig Ten Network.
Pose now provides color commentary for theDurham Bulls' television and radio broadcasts, with Patrick Kinas giving play-by-play commentary.
