Cummings was credited with inventing the curveball. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1939. ==Early life== Cummings was born in Ware, Massachusetts.

Ten days later he led his team to a 24-2 win against the Newark Eurekas.〔 After the latter game, baseball writer Henry Chadwick commented on the skills of the young Cummings and his promising future with the Excelsior club.〔(Charlton's Baseball Chronology – 1866 )〕 Cummings played for the Excelsiors next season and continued as the main pitcher for the Stars of Brooklyn from 1868 to 1871.
