AnonymousGermany Schaefer comes to mind.
It was Schaefer who created the rule that you could not return to the previous base after advancing on a previous play.
He stole second one day. The next pitch he stole first. The next play he stole second again.
How would you like to be the pitcher, the catcher or the umpire (let alone the scorekeeper) after this sequence?
Germany Schaefer-a true pioneer.
