King Kelly, John McGraw and Rube Marquard performed on vaudeville during their careers.
Mordecai Brown was a miner in his early career. During his first few years with the Yanks Yogi worked at Sears. Roy Campanella lucked into a weird deal with Nashua while in the New England League. A farmer said he'd give him 100 chickens for every homer. So when he hit 14 homers and ended up with 1,400 chickens, he started a farm. Later he opened a liquor store in Harlem. Lefty Gomez was offered a try out by the Yanks while working at Universal Studios and pitching for a Hollywood Hills team. Last edited by packs; 10-11-2014 at 11:49 AM. |
