MLB Trivia
- 8 teams currently in the league date back the 1901: the Baltimore Orioles, the Boston Red Sox, the New York Yankees, the Chicago White Sox, the Cleveland Indians, the Detroit Tigers, the Minnesota Twins, and the Oakland Athletics.
- The early 20th Century in baseball is known as the “dead ball era,” because players tended not to hit homeruns as we currently think of them. In fact, all a player needed to get a home run was to have the ball bounce through the outfield and roll through the fence!
- On July 20, 1969 San Francisco Giants pitcher Gaylord Perry hit the first and only homerun of his career, 20 minutes after the moon landing. Maybe not so interesting in and of itself, but Perry had earlier declared, “They’ll put a man on the moon before I hit homerun!”
- Braves third baseman Eddie Matthews became the first athlete ever featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine on Aug. 16, 1954.
- The average minimum salary in the MLB in 1965 was just $6,000 a year, about $45,000 in 2016 dollars. Today the average minimum salary is over $400,000.
