4. Ok, I was way off here. Carl Erskine was the first Brooklyn pitcher in the National League to throw multiple no hitters, but William "Adonis" Terry threw two with the old Brooklyn Grays, who were in the American League.
Credit to Ted Z for answering this correctly.

5. The first catcher to catch three no hitters was Silver Flint. All three no hitters were as a member of the Chicago White Stockings.

As do I. Thank you
I'm an absolute sponge when it comes to baseball history, but if there's one area I could really use more education, it's Baseball history from the 19th century. Netflix is losing its PBS programming at the end of the month, so I'm planning on watching Ken Burns' Baseball at least once more all the way through, if not twice. Then I'll just buy the DVD set.

Once I get my Larry Corcoran card from Legendary, I'll post a scan of him

Another with 13 players who were with the Pittsburgh Pirates during the regular season, but never played a game. There's also one about 27 baseball families, as well as a day-by-day look at the worst team in Pittsburgh Pirates history.

John, that Legendary copy may be the nicest Corcoran N172 existent. It is an absolutely beautiful Fb! Congrats on a nice pickup, albeit not cheap.
