I picked up this one awhile back but thought it was worth posting to the thread. In 1948, Satchel Paige was a 42-year old rookie pitcher with the Cleveland Indians and the first black pitcher in the American League. This stub is from Paige's 3rd career start, 5th career win and 2nd consecutive shutout against the White Sox.
