Hello all,
I am a genealogist with a connection to MILB and I would love some help proving connections.
My 2nd great grand uncle was a man named William Glowacki of Shamokin, PA. Born in 1901, He played catched with Jimmy Foxx (Yes, that Double X Foxx) in 1934 with the Fuhrmann and Schmidt Brewers (a local town team I guess)
In 1929, according to news articles, "Chops" as he was known, rookie catcher for the Philadelphia A's was farmed out to the Martinsburg affiliate of the Blue Ridge League.
According to his obituary, he had a "posting" with the Philadelphia A's in 1927.
However, he doesn't seem to have made the majors?
What could the truth be?
