Candy Sierra
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ulises (Pizarro) Sierra (born March 27, 1967, in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico) was a Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher.
Signed by the San Diego Padres as an amateur free agent in 1983, Sierra would make his Major League Baseball debut with the San Diego Padres on April 6, 1988, and appear in his final game on June 10, 1988.
Sierra was notable for his role as a replacement player during Spring Training prior to the 1995 season. Replacement players took over for professional baseball players when the Major League Baseball Players Association went on strike. The strike was resolved at the end of Spring Training. Sierra would not return to Major League Baseball after the strike was resolved, and was blacklisted and not permitted membership in the Major League Baseball Players Association.[citation needed]
