Just ran across this website this morning and thought I'd
share it with everyone. Very nicely designed site with lots
of photos and information.

Thanks for the link, Erik. Three-finger has been one of my favorites since the '70's when my buddies and I were playing Stratomatic Baseball for hour after hour on rainey days, or when we didn't have enough guys to field even a three on three game. We had the Stratomatic cards of the all-time top echelon hall-of-famers, and Mordecai always was a top starter, with the card of his 1906 season, when he went 26-6 with a 1.04 ERA. Also just finished the biography, "Three Finger, the Mordecai Brown Story," by Cindy Thomson & Scott Brown, which talks about the memorial, but did not include any pics of it.
He was one hell of a pitcher!
