You've got me beat, Barry!

I was hoping for somebody like Eddie Collins, Al Simmons or Johnny Bench.

It's just random Bill. Didn't have much say on the date.

And John Coltrane was born on September 23, so you share with a giant in the field of jazz!

And Bruce Springsteen!

Born in the USA!!!!

Perhaps we could either extend this thread or start a new one with:

What single calendar date has the most:

HOFers

best pitching

best offense

best defense


or the best players, in the hall or not

Now, that's a good bit of research, if someone wants to take the Mantle (10/20).

My father shares a birthday with Mantle.

For me Joe Morgan is the best match.
