Roy Garvin Sanders, nicknamed "Butch", was a Major League Baseball pitcher. In 1917, Sanders was purchased from the Kansas City Blues of the American Association by the Cincinnati Reds and would play with the team that season. Later that year, Sanders returned to Kansas City when the Blues purchased him from the Reds. Not long after, Sanders was traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates to complete a deal that included Fritz Mollwitz.

He played at the collegiate level at William Jewell College.[1]
