Jimmy Ryan and Tom Parrott are the only position players to do this. For the sake of clarity a position player is defined as someone who plays more games in the field than he does as a pitcher. The innings pitched versus innings in the field is not germane.

The only thing I know about Tom Parrott is he hit for the cycle in 1894. So I will guess, hit for the cycle and won at least one game in the same year (1887 or 1888 for Ryan) :noidea

I believe others have done that as well.

I don't know whether this is this you ask about but both Parrott and Ryan are among players who accomplished a rare feat: they pitched a game, hit a HR off opposing pitcher and yielded a HR to the same opposing pitcher.

That is correct. They are among that group, but are the only ones who were position players.
