Baseball Birthdays: April sixteenth

Paul Waner was "Big Poison" and his brother Lloyd was "Little."
He holds a record, fourteen straight games with extra base hittle.

"Dutch Leonard" had the lowest single season ERA.
He feuded with Ty Cobb, as did most players in his day.

Jim Lonborg made Sox dream come true with Cy Young victory.
He could have had a long career, but he preferred to ski.

Bob Montgomery, backup backstop, career BoSock Red,
Was the last to bat without a helmet on his head.
