Nathan Orf (born February 1, 1990) is an American professional baseball infielder in the Milwaukee Brewers organization.

Career

Orf played college baseball at Baylor University. He was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Milwaukee Brewers in 2013.[1]

On August 31, 2014, when he was playing for the Brevard County Manatees, Orf played all nine positions in a game against the Dunedin Blue Jays. He became the first Manatee to ever play all nine positions. The next day, on September 1, Orf was called up to the Huntsville Stars for the playoffs.[2] The Brewers promoted him to the major leagues on July 2, 2018.[3] Orf's first major league hit, a home run, came on July 4 at home against the Minnesota Twins.[4] After the home run, Orf was carried out of the dugout by his teammates for a curtain call.[5]
