I saw an interview with Stewart about this. What a class act that man is.

Clutch performance for Mr. Wright who was of course the right man for the job!

Today's #1947League hero, Johnny "Needlenose" Wright, had a historic connection with the real-life Brooklyn #Dodgers
What was it?

#YIAY how #1947League Dodger star Johnny "Needlenose" Wright was connected to the real-life Brooklyn club. Answer: He was the second Black player Branch Rickey signed, after Jackie.

DAY, CARDS TOP BUMS
Leon got the W, scored what turned out to be the winning run as St. Louis bounced back from yesterday's loss to Brooklyn. Day:10 wins, .295, 16 RBI.
Dodgers ace Branca collided with Kurowski while trying to break up a DP. Out 10.

Malicious! Kurowski should be suspended!

To be fair, Branca went in hard.
🙂
He misses two starts. A big deal, potentially.

People ask us: Are we scared of the AI at #1947League? Hell no!
We love dice, we love physical cards, we love scribbling out handmade scoresheets. But we ain't LUDDITES, dammit!

Frequently compared to Satchel Paige, Leon Day may have had the edge over Satch in '47 because he was a daily player.
Name a position he played as a regular when he wasn't the starting pitcher.
One guess.

You are correct, Ruth! 🙂
What would you like to hear?

In honour of Leon Day’s other position, how about the incorrectly-spelled “Centerfield” by the correct John Fogerty?
