Wallace ICE CREAM STEVENS starred for the Hartford Harmoniums, where he was known as "The Catcher as the Letter C." In the late innings of close games, he was prized for his ability to come up with insurance runs.
Robert LEFTY LOWELL set many records in the Quaker Ballyard at Nantucket. Known for confessional clouts, at time he would fall prey to a regressive hitting syndrome known as Lord Weary's Battingslump; but he was nevertheless a Yankee all the way, and a throwback to the game's Old Glory.
Federico Garcia GYPSY LORCA was a great hitter whose bat was a bitter root. Starring for the old Granada Green Sox, He was a graceful fielder as well, though it was darkly rumored that his glove hid a "blood webbing."
Dylan YOUNG DOG THOMAS twirled for the Swansea Sweetsingers. It was common knowledge to the fans that, whenever he pitched, both the bases and Thomas were loaded. He did not go gentle into that good night-game.
