The 1928 Homestead Grays
April 25, 2012 by Scott Simkus · Leave a Comment
After five years of poking around, I’ve rebuilt 99% of the 1928 Homestead Grays schedule, have located results for 150 games, and box scores for more than 100 contests. This week, in the Seamhead’s Outsider Baseball Bulletin, I reveal some new details from the OBB’s latest archaelogical dig. Included: Five home runs in one double-header by John Beckwith (newly discovered box scores) and the team’s records versus various levels of competition. Please help support the research by subscribing to the OBB at www.outsiderbaseball.com! We’re currently giving away free Pete Hill trading cards to every new subscriber. These full-color cards were created by acclaimed baseball artist Gary Joseph Cieradkowski.
