Here is an image of Cedar Rapids players Dean Minke and Hal Holderfield from 1957. Minke no hit Keokuk on August 7, 1957 with some help from Holderfield who made a fine catch from right field in the 7th inning. Holderfield spent 6 years in the minors never making it to the Brooklyn and later Los Angeles Dodgers, hit .264 with a scant 11 home runs. The no hitter was the height of a tough year for Dean Minke. He went 8-12 with a 4.57 ERA. His professional career ended a year later.
