 For 22 years in the Negro Leagues, Leroy Satchel Page was arguably black baseball's hardest thrower. The lanky right-hander racked up 21 consecutive wins, a 31-4 record and a professional record of 62 consecutive scoreless innings in 1933. Page headlined exhibition games from South America up through Canada and baffled white major league hitters with pitches named the Trouble Ball and the Four Day Creeper. In 1948, Page became a Cleveland Indian and Major League Baseball's oldest rookie ever at the age of 42. Satchel Page was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971. Celebrating black history, I'm Megan Triplett.
