Well, I could not find him on BBR...so, I'm calling uncle.
I have one for you though: On this date (4/26) in 1902, Addie Joss made his major league debut by pitching a one-hitter with the only hit being by Jessie Burkett. What other future Hall-of-Famer debuted with a one-hitter?

That hint did not help me.
I was trying to recall something like a sports-related museum or HOF there, but I think I was confusing it with Springfield, MA.

Wilbur lived in Springfield for many years, but his notoriety occurred after he left. He was playing at a ball park though named after a major league pitcher.

Okay, I'm now guessing he's some sort of entertainer. Was the stadium he was 'playing' in Shea Stadium? I know there was a Shea who pitched.

Correct - pretty amazing debuts. Seems like Luis Tiant may have had something close to that in his debut...I'll have to look it up. Tiant, of course, along with Minnie Minoso, should also be Hall-of-Famers! Before rose, before bonds, and before clemens!

Yup, Luis pitched a complete game four-hit shutout against the Yankees on July 19, 1964.

Okay, Here's One For Yah
When THIS player ended his career, he was third in most games played in centerfield (National League). Google if you must, but more fun if you don't.
