My great-grandfather was Spider Baum, PCL pitcher and executive. I work at The Sacramento Bee and as part of an article on the 100th anniversary of Buffalo Park, I've put together a video on Spider who pitched for Sacramento in 1909-1912.
The video is on our website:
www.sacbee.com and can be viewed at this link:

I hope you enjoy the video. Please share the link with your baseball friends.
If you have problems viewing it, let me know. Additional information on Spider can be found on my website:
