John Gladstone Graney (June 10, 1886 – April 20, 1978) was a Canadian left fielder in Major League Baseball who played his entire career with the Cleveland Indians. Following his playing days, Graney became a baseball radio broadcaster, providing play-by-play, for the Indians in 1932–53. Graney was inducted into the Cleveland Indians Distinguished Hall of Fame for non-uniformed personnel, with his induction taking place on Saturday, August 11, 2012 prior to a game at Progressive Field. ==Playing career== On Monday, June 26, , the Cleveland Indians used numbers on their uniforms on an experimental basis in a home game against the White Sox. The numbers, which were worn on the players' uniform sleeves, corresponded with information in the scorecards. Jack Graney was the first player in Major League Baseball history to appear in a regular season game with a number on his uniform and, two seasons previously, was the first batter to ever face Babe Ruth in a Major League Baseball game on Saturday, July 11, 1914. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jack Graney」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
