Thomas Arthur Tischinski was born on July 12, 1944 in Kansas City, Missouri.

The Kansas City Athletics signed him as an amateur free agent in 1962. He was acquired by the Minnesota Twins in the 1967 minor league draft, and he made his Major League debut for them in 1969.

Tischinski played 82 games for the Twins over parts of three seasons, being used sparingly as a third catcher. He hit .181 with six RBI. His only big league home run came on August 21, 1970 off of Casey Cox of the Washington Senators. Minnesota won the American League West in 1969 and 1970, but Tischinski never appeared on their postseason roster.

He passed away in 2024 at the age of 79.
