Player Biography
One of the top left-handed pitchers in history, Rube Waddell was also among the game’s most eccentric and colorful players. Waddell possessed a great fastball and curve, aided by pinpoint control. Walter Johnson said: “(Waddell) had more sheer pitching ability than any man I ever saw.” Connie Mack got the most out of him, as Waddell won 97 games for the Philadelphia Athletics between 1902 and 1905. He led the American League in strikeouts six consecutive seasons, including a long-standing record of 349 in 1904.
