Hub Kittle
For nearly eighty years, Hub Kittle loved and studied pitching. He first realized that this was his calling when he was eight years old. He could outthrow all the neighborhood kids. “Something clicked there, that I had something the good Lord must have gave me. I don’t know why, I couldn’t outfight ’em and I couldn’t outrun ’em, but I could outthrow ’em. Well, all of a sudden, I decided I wanted to be a ballplayer and from there on, I just kept throwing baseballs.” - SABR
Read his SABR bio. Seemed quite the character. Best I could do. Older coaches are tough.
