The Conigliaro family made its mark in baseball during the 1960s and 1970s. Although Tony Conigliaro is the member that most baseball fans remember, especially after his horrific beaning, he was not the only one to appear in the majors. Billy Conigliaro also had a five year career, ending with the Oakland A’s in 1973.
Sadly, Conigliaro passed away on Wednesday, without any cause of death having been provided.
