I have three cards of Doug Ault. This one is from 1981 Fleer.
Playing career: Doug Ault was the first Blue Jay hero,
hitting two home runs in the franchise’s first game. That was the only
significant highlight in a 256-game major league career.
After baseball: Ault committed suicide in 2004. A Toronto Sun story from the following year goes into great detail about Ault’s
post-baseball life.
My memories: His playing career was before my time, but he
was the answer to a common trivia question. Was sad to hear about his death.
Google Autocomplete results: He is fifth when you type Doug
Au, between Doug Auer NY Post, referring to a crime reporter, and Doug
Augenthaler, a Principal at Highbrace Capital. Another prominent Doug Ault is
Multimedia Editor at The Easterner.
Coming up next: The next profile will be Rich Aurilia.
