  Omar Daal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Omar José Daal (born February 23, 1972 in Maracaibo, Zulia State, Venezuela) was a Major League Baseball pitcher for 11 seasons, from 1993 through 2003.
Omar Daal's current whereabouts are unknown and it is presumed that he is not pitching in organized baseball.
In an 11-season career, Daal compiled a won-loss record of 68-78, with 806 strikeouts and a 4.55 ERA in 1198 innings pitched.

 Omar Daal
Daal was the MLB champion in terms of H/9 (12.88) among those with at least 90 innings last season.
In fact--and this really cemented the decision to give Daal the trophy--no big league pitcher with at least 90 innings pitched has allowed as many hits per nine innings in a season as Daal did in 2003 since 1980 when both Mike Parrot and Ed Figueroa were worse.
Daal's mark is 25th worst in the modern era, and the fifth worst since 1939.
