Bloomington Bloomers

Hall of Famer

Technically Ol’ Stubblebeard, Burleigh Grimes was a Bloomington Cardinal. The last legal thrower of the spitball, Grimes was a player/manager for the Cardinals in 1935. He did well enough that year to be promoted to the Card’s Louisville farm club in 1936. Ol’ Stubblebeard! A Hall of Fame nickname for a Hall of Fame pitcher.
