Carey A. Schueler (born April 15, 1974) [1] is the daughter of former Chicago White Sox general manager Ron Schueler. She was the first woman ever drafted by a Major League Baseball (MLB) team when the White Sox picked the 18-year-old left-handed pitcher in the 43rd round (1208th pick overall) of the 1993 MLB draft. [2] Prior to Schueler's drafting, the MLB had a ban in place on signing contracts for women; following her drafting by the White Sox, the rule was rescinded. [3]
Up until that time she had been a basketball star at Campolindo High School in Moraga, California. [4] [5] She attended and played basketball for DePaul University in Chicago, Illinois before transferring to St. Mary's College of California, in Moraga, [6] where she continued to play until an injury in 1996.
