His MLB appearance came on July 10, 1963, at Connie Mack Stadium, when he was called upon to pinch run following first baseman Roy Sievers' single; it was the eighth inning and the Phils led the San Francisco Giants, 10–2. Harrington advanced to second base one out later, following Don Hoak's single. But the inning ended when Clay Dalrymple grounded into a double play.[3] Harrington did not stay in the game on defense, as veteran Frank Torre took Sievers' post at first base in the ninth.[4]
Harrington died on September 20, 2017, in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.[5]
