Ozzie played for the following teams. Oakland Athletics (1990), St. Louis Cardinals (1992–1993) and Kintetsu Buffaloes in Japan (1991). Later he was manager for the Brownsville Charros of the United League before the league's dissolution. He was previously the pitching and hitting coach for the Yuma Scorpions of the independent North American League and the manager of the Edinburg Roadrunners. Ozzie had a brief major league career, playing in 24 career games with the Oakland Athletics and St. Louis Cardinals between 1990 and 1993. In 1991, he played in Japan for the Kintetsu Buffaloes. Ozzie Canseco was drafted as a pitcher by the New York Yankees in the second round of the 1983 Major League Baseball draft. In stark contrast to the prolific, power hitting career of his twin brother, Ozzie never hit a major league home run. Canseco currently holds the Atlantic League single season home run record with 48, which he achieved while playing for the Newark Bears in 2000. (This was more home runs than his brother ever hit in a season.) After the season ended Canseco was named the league's MVP. Later he played one season in the Northern League. In 1991, Canseco signed a one-year contract with the Kintetsu Buffaloes of the Japanese Pacific League. However, due to an injury, Ozzie would never play a game with the Buffaloes. On April 11, 2011, it was announced that Ozzie and his brother would play for the Yuma Scorpions of the North American League. In addition to playing, Ozzie would be the bench coach and Jose would manage the team. Ozzie played 12 games with 8 hits and 12 RBIs. His season batting average was .258. Canseco appeared on an episode of VH1's The Surreal Life (Season 5) as a José Canseco impersonator. At the end of the program, it was revealed that he was José's twin brother. As manager of the Brownsville Charros in the United League, Ozzie pulled his team off the field with a 2–1 lead giving the RGV Whitewings a win. THIS IS AN AUTHENTIC HAND AUTOGRAPHED PSA/DNA CARD.
