No Hit Wilson Joins Negro NLBP Baseball Honor
Boston pitcher Earl Wilson, 220 pounds and 6 1 by 2 feet, threw a no hitter against the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway Park becoming the first Negro in the American League to achieve a no hitter. Wilson, formerly known as wild Man, fired a blazing fastball to a 2-0 Boston win as he credited his improved control and speed. He recalled a prior near no hitter against Detroit and noted faith from manager Mike Higgins and teammates. The piece also mentions Sam Jones as the previous Negro no hitter and includes local Garden City Legion baseball notes with game times at Healy tonight and LaCrosse Sunday, naming Richard Arnold as likely starter and Jerry Horning as catcher.
