Indiana boasts a rich baseball tradition, with 10 native sons
enshrined in Cooperstown. This biographical dictionary provides a
close look at the lives of all 364 Hoosier big leaguers, who
include: New York City's first baseball superstar; the first rookie
pitcher to win three games in a World Series; the man who caught
most of Cy Young's record 511 career wins; one of the game's first
star relievers; the player who held the record for consecutive
games played before Lou Gehrig; an obscure infielder mentioned in
Charles Schulz's ""Peanuts"" comic strip; baseball's only
one-legged pitcher; Indiana's first Mr. Basketball, who became one
of baseball's greatest pinch-hitters; the first African American to
play for the Cincinnati Reds; the only pitcher to throw a perfect
game in the World Series; the skipper of the 1969 'Miracle Mets';
the pitcher for whom a ground-breaking surgical procedure is named;
and the only two men to have played in both the World Series and
the Final Four of the NCAA Basketball Tournament.
