Joseph Paul Visner (born Joseph Paul Vezina: September 27, 1859 – June 17, 1945) was a 19th-century Major League Baseball outfielder and catcher born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He played from 1885 to 1891, mostly in the American Association.[1] Visner also has the distinction of being one of the few Native Americans to play professionally in the years prior to the arrival of the much more famous Louis Sockalexis.[2] Visner had a brother named Lawrence Visner, and a sister-in-law by the name of Mary Visner.
