Qual Hilddvpoad, the Ol' Hoosier Hotshot, put up some great numbers in 1928. Won 37 games, never gave up a single hit. Blew out his arm in the Crash of '29 and was back in Kokomo pumping gas by 1930. Jodi Birkholm interviewed Qual shortly before he passed away in 1987. Told Jodi that he'd had a better year in '28 than both Ruth and Hoover but only got fifty bucks a week. He is enshrined in the Norwegian Baseball Hall of Fame.
