Too many elk In Your neighborhood I hear

This former Giant died recently.  He appeared in one game and two innings in his Giant career in 1958.  Who is he and explain his appearance?

Nick Testa.  30 years old, only appearance in the big leagues.  Didn't get an at-bat, made an error in his only chance.  Later that season, named the bullpen coach for the Giants. When he retired, he became the Yankees' batting practice coach, and was there for five of the Yankees' World Championships.  Played in Japan his last professional year.
