Thank you all for the kind words and great support! If you're shut in due to inclement weather, here's an engrossing read to get you through the weekend
 Undeniably a great pitcher, he was also a better hitter than many realize, frequently hitting clean-up for integrated semi-pro and minor league teams throughout the 1920-30's. His story of integration is far stranger than fiction, and 1916 Oakland was just the tip of the iceberg. Last edited by pariah1107; 01-23-2016 at 02:32 PM.
