Default A Nuts and Bolts Question

What did Reulbach's catcher buy at the Hardware Store?

And why?

Yikes!!!! He was with Newark in the Fed League, I was mistaken, his Brooklyn affiliation was in the NL... but Ed Reulbach is the guy I was after...

As for the catcher and the hardware store, I have no idea. Don't know if you're talking Kling, Archer, or someone else.




Big Ed would have liked the "curve ball".

Frank,
Might it have been white paint. Reulbachs eye site was so poor his catchers would paint the inside of thier gloves.

White paint is correct. Now post your own question. This doesn't have to be a single thread. Hopefully there will be several questions in play at the same time. The trunk is growing, we need branches.

Name the 6 Italian baseball players to have hit 40 or more Home Runs in 1 year.
