José Bracho

José de la Trinidad Bracho (July 23, 1928 – June 16, 2011) was a Venezuelan professional baseball pitcher. Listed at 6' 1", 185 lb., he batted and threw right handed. His friends and fans affectionately called him Carrao ("crying bird"), a moniker that he used throughout his life. Born in Maracaibo, Zulia, Bracho has been considered one of the best pitchers in Venezuelan baseball history.

Bracho spent 26 years in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League, played four minor leagues seasons, hurled in the Dominican Winter League, and appeared in six Caribbean Series, setting an all-time pitching mark in this tournament. Notably, forty years after his retirement in 1973, Bracho still owns the all-time records in the Venezuelan league for the most wins (109), complete games (91), strikeouts (859) and innings pitched (), and still owns the record for the most wins in a single-season, while collecting 15 in the 1961–1962 season.
