Default Guys On PostWar Board - Don't Know - Maybe Someone Here Does?
Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Ahhh....

Well it isn't a baseball card from a baseball card set.


I think the feat happened back in the 30s, and that you could find a Ripley's newspaper piece that talks about the feat in greater detail. Might have happened in the mid teens, but my guess is mid 30s. Why don't you try searching "Willie Lathrop" in a New York Times data base, or some other major paper?
