The Three-Fingered Pitcher

A bike accident, a dislocated index finger, and a suggestion from my wife prompted me to dig into the life and career of Mordecai “Three-Finger” Brown, who suffered a sudden and gruesome amputation of his right index finger at the tender age of five (or seven, depending on the source). As a result of this, Mordeaci Brown, a Hall of Famer and considered in everyone’s top-30 list of all-time pitchers, delivered the baseball to home plate over 14 professional seasons as no pitcher did before or since — or ever will again.
