I think the Expos drafted him and traded him to the Rangers, but I'm not sure.

I remember watching a Rangers game "back in the day" where there weren't many fans in the crowd, because it was a typical Rangers September. The crowd was so sparse that you could hear one pair of drunk fans taunting Pete Incaviglia. You could hear them yell "Porky Pete" several times between each pitch. Funny stuff.
But I loved Pete Incaviglia as a kid. He goes on local radio every once in a while to talk about the old days (and that Phillies World Series team he played on in the nineties) and he seems like a good guy.
