Untold Baseball Stories #1 - Story of Squire Potter ROUGH CUT

The incredible story of Squire Potter, who signed a contract with the Knoxville Patriots in 1922, and in his first pitching start, he set an Appalachian League record with 13 strikeouts. By the end of his first season his contract was bought by Clark Griffith of the Washington Senators for the then unheard-of sum of $30,000. His story is more than a baseball story - it's about the great cultural divide that existed in early 20th century America. Written and edited by David E. Carter, who interviewed Squire in 1973, 50 years after her had lived a life in anonymity after his brief moment in the sun as a member of the Washington Senators, and a teammate of Walter Johnson.
