Player Biography
Master of the screwball, left-handed “King Carl” Hubbell was one of the best pitchers of the 1930s. Unflappable on the mound, Hubbell became a national sensation for striking out five straight Hall of Famers in the 1934 All-Star Game: Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Jimmie Foxx, Al Simmons and Joe Cronin. From 1929 to 1937, the New York Giants “Meal Ticket” averaged 20 wins, led the club to three pennants, and won the National League Most Valuable Player Award twice. Waite Hoyt claimed, “Hubbell is the greatest pitcher in the league.”
