'''Robert Meiklejohn MacDougal''' (born March 5, 1977) is an American former professional [[baseball]] player who was a [[relief pitcher]]. He is a [[switch hitter]] and throws right-handed. He played in [[Major League Baseball]] (MLB) for the [[Kansas City Royals]], [[Chicago White Sox]], [[Washington Nationals]], [[St. Louis Cardinals]] and [[Los Angeles Dodgers]].

His pitch selection include a fastball in the 95-98&nbsp;mph range, a [[Slider (baseball)|slider]], [[Curveball|curve]], and a [[changeup]] used only occasionally.<ref>The Neyer/James Guide to Pitchers: An Historical Compendium of Pitching, Pitchers, and Pitches. Bill James and Rob Neyer. 2004.</ref>

A former star pitcher for [[Wake Forest University]], MacDougal began his career as a [[starting pitcher]] but suffered a fractured skull late in the [[2001 in sports|2001]] season when he was struck in the head by a bat that had escaped from the hand of [[Carlos Beltrán]]. He lost feeling in his right arm and was unable to pitch for three months. In [[2003 in baseball|2003]] the Royals turned him into a [[closer (baseball)|closer]]. He recorded 24 [[Save (sport)|saves]] by midseason and made the [[Major League Baseball All-Star Game|American League All-Star]] team.

==Amateur career==

MacDougal struggled with [[flu]]-like symptoms in spring training in [[2004 in sports|2004]], causing him to lose weight and, as a result, to lose velocity off his [[fastball]], which had been clocked as high as 103 miles per hour. He lost his job as the Royals' closer to [[Jeremy Affeldt]] and spent much of the 2004 season in the [[Minor league baseball|minor leagues]]. However, early in [[2005 in sports|2005]], he was reinstalled as the closer after [[Jeremy Affeldt|Affeldt]] himself was injured.

Born in [[Las Vegas, Nevada]], MacDougal graduated from [[Mesa High School (Mesa, Arizona)|Mesa High School]] in [[Mesa, Arizona]],<ref>{{cite web |title=Mike MacDougal Stats |url=http://www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=macdomi01 |access-date=November 15, 2012 |website=[[Baseball Almanac]]}}</ref> and attended [[Wake Forest University]], where he pitched for the [[Wake Forest Demon Deacons baseball]] team. In 1997, he played [[collegiate summer baseball]] for the [[Cotuit Kettleers]] of the [[Cape Cod Baseball League]], was named a league all-star,<ref>{{cite news | last =Judd | first =Grant | title = Pitching Decides the Kettleers' Fate | pages = 18 | newspaper = Yarmouth Register | ___location = Yarmouth, MA | date = July 24, 1997 | url = http://digital.olivesoftware.com/Olive/APA/Yarmouth/SharedView.Article.aspx?href=DPLTR%2F1997%2F07%2F24&id=Ar01800&sk=53947AB2&viewMode=image }}</ref> and returned to the league in 1998 to play with the [[Chatham A's]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Major League Baseball Players From the Cape Cod League |url=http://capecodbaseball.org.ismmedia.com/ISM3/std-content/repos/Top/2012website/archives/Current%20Year/All_Time_MLB_CCBL_Alumni.pdf |access-date=January 9, 2020 |website=[[Cape Cod Baseball League]]}}</ref>

He was selected in the 22nd round (651st overall) of the [[1996 Major League Baseball draft]] and the 17th round of the [[1998 Major League Baseball draft]] by the [[Baltimore Orioles]], but did not sign on either occasion.<ref>{{Cite web |title=22nd Round of the 1996 MLB June Amateur Draft |url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/ |access-date=August 4, 2022 |website=[[Baseball-Reference.com]] |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=17th Round of the 1998 MLB June Amateur Draft |url=https://www.baseball-reference.com/draft/ |access-date=August 4, 2022 |website=[[Baseball-Reference.com]] |language=en}}</ref>

In a four-season career, MacDougal has a 5-8 record with 49 saves and a 4.42 [[earned run average|ERA]].

==Professional career==

He was acquired in a trade for minor-league pitchers [[Tyler Lumsden]] and [[Dan Cortes]] by the [[Chicago White Sox]] on [[July 24]], [[2006]]. [http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/baseball/mlb/07/24/whitesox.trade/]

===Chicago White Sox===

The addition of MacDougal was to be a move to bolster the White Sox bullpen as they vied for playoff contention, and while the team ended up missing the playoffs, MacDougal was quite effective in his 25 appearances, going 1–1 with an ERA of 1.80.<ref name=":0" /> Combining his appearances with both teams, he finished the year with a 1.55 [[Earned run average|ERA]].<ref name=":0" />
