Former Baseball Ace Don Black's Daughters Sent Away
In Cleveland on June 7, Judge Albert Waldman ordered the two daughters of former pitcher Don Black and his wife Joyce placed in girls homes until a suitable home is re established. Black, once a Cleveland Indians star, and his wife faced custody decisions after prior child neglect convictions. The judge expressed sympathy and noted Black’s past hero status and subsequent decline due to drinking. Black said he now works as an automobile salesman in Akron following a 1947 no hit game and a brain bleed incident a year later.
