Johnny Kling
John Gransfield Kling (February 25, 1875 – January 31, 1947) was an American catcher in Major League Baseball for the Chicago Cubs (the Chicago Orphans until 1902), Boston Rustlers and Braves, and Cincinnati Reds.
Kling was the Cubs' starting catcher in the final game of the 1908 World Series, their last championship to date.
==Early years==
Kling was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri, the son of John (a German American baker) and Caroline Kling. It was expected that he would work in the bakery business, as his brother Charles seems to have done, but Johnny fell in love with baseball. By the age of fifteen, he was playing amateur ball. He also had an interest in pool, and began playing competitively even as he pursued a baseball career ("Match Game of Pool," 1897, 3). In late January 1904, Kling married Lillian May Gradwohl. While Kling was not born Jewish, his wife was, and they were married by a Kansas City Rabbi Harry H. Mayer, of Temple B'Nai Jehudah, a Reform congregation.
