Today's #1947League game brought to you by the biologically-aligned baseball cyborg that is CLIFF.

He identified Geddy Lee as the man who donated a huge collection of autographed #baseball s to #NLBM.

CLIFF chose #RUSH. Natch.

I threw that question over to Cliff, who got it instantly. The major rock bassist who is also (like yours truly) a NNL/NAL baseball geek is Geddy Lee of #Rush. (Cal Ripken Jr. is, too!)

Lee donated his collection of autographed #baseball s to #NLBM in 2008, bless his heart.

Quick. Before I have to ask Cliff!

Name the major rock bassist who was also a huge fan of Black baseball ... and who donated over 200 autographed NAL/NNL baseballs to the #NLBM.

81 games into a 154 game season and so digging the pennant races in #1947League ...

SPAHN SHUTS DOWN TIANT, PIRATES

Braves keep right on rolling as Spahn evens his record at 8-8 with a two-hit shutout. Boston has won eight in a row. Tiant's quality start goes to waste.

BOSB(42-36) 350
PIT(36-42) 020

Today's #1947League hero, Minnie Minoso (HOF), had established himself primarily as a catcher in Cuba when he informed his manager he had to play a different position. Why did he do that?

@SlangsOnSports

WOW. What's your source on all the #NegroLeagues players younger than 22 years, 232 days old? I'm impressed, because you must have a much better source on birthdates than Seamheads.com, and I thought they had the very best data.

It sounds like you've made a major breakthrough here, so please do share the archive you've found.

Today's hero, Al Smith, helped to win matching pennants for the very same city -- securing the flag as a regular in both the NAL and the American League.

FELLER WINS 6TH; TRIBE TOPS SENATORS

Cleveland's ace struck out 6 and held off a late comeback attempt at Edward John Coyle Memorial Stadium.

Senators drop to 18-51. But I love them. Like I love the A's.
