“One of the reasons I’ve been able to play baseball well is because it’s fun for me,” Chuck Klein said. “Many players find it work.”
For 17 years, Klein excelled at the game he found so much fun. He spent 15 years as the Philadelphia Phillies right fielder where he was an offensive force. He was named National League MVP in 1932 and followed that performance by winning the Triple Crown in 1933. He was also an All-Star in 1933 and 1934.

“You can’t hit ’em if you can’t see ’em.” – John McGraw, about hitting against Amos Rusie’s pitching
In his short but brilliant career, Amos Rusie helped revolutionize the game of baseball with his velocity. Perhaps the fastest pitcher of the 1890s, the right-handed Rusie won five National League strikeout titles in six seasons with the New York Giants from 1890-95, both before and after baseball moved the pitching mound in 1893 from 50 feet to its present 60 feet, 6 inches.
