OK I already told Kyle I knew #1 was Tony Gwynn. #3 is Kenny Lofton. Still don't know #2. I'd just be guessing until I was right so I'll wait and see if someone actually knows.
Born in Oklahoma in 1898. I was the first full-blooded person of my race to play major league baseball. I started my career as a pitcher with the Arkansas Travelers a minor league team of the Southern Association and helped lead that team to it's first championship. I then made my major league debut for the the Pittsburgh Pirates as a relief pitcher on April 15. 1921. I was credited with the win in that game. Soon after I ruptured my arm and required surgery forcing me to miss the next two months. Not long after returning I injured my arm again during a game as the result of a fall due to being drunk of my a$$. I was released by the Pirates due to my alcoholism and unprofessional behavior. I was sent to play for the minor league Sacramento Senators where I spent the next two years before reportedly being traded to Omaha for a box of cigars. By 1923 I had alienated everyone due to my drinking and behavior. No team was willing to let me play and I was exiled from my community and not permitted to return. I spent the next 22 years drunk and homeless until suddenly turning my life around and finding work with the Oklahoma State Highway Department. I remained sober the rest of my life and not only was welcomed back to my community but became an honored member. I died on April 10. 1964 at the age of sixty-six in Oklahoma.
