Terry Lee "Tito" Landrum (born October 25, 1954 in Joplin, Missouri), is a former professional baseball player who played in the Major Leagues primarily as an outfielder from 1980 to 1988. He graduated from Highland High School in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He attend Mascoutah Elementary located outside of St Louis,MO in the small town of Mascoutah, IL
Landrum hit the game-winning home run for the Baltimore Orioles in the final game of the 1983 American League Championship Series.[1] He was a very late addition to the Orioles post-season roster, and such an unlikely hero that teammate John Lowenstein joked that he was not sure of Landrum's first name.[1] Landrum also played well in the 1985 National League Championship Series and 1985 World Series for the St. Louis Cardinals, subbing for an injured Vince Coleman. He hit well over .300 in the postseason and had a home run in game four of the World Series.[2]
