Terris Chester McDuffie (May 22, 1910 – April 29, 1968) was an African American professional baseball player. Listed at 6' 1" (1.85 m), 200 lb. (91 kg), he batted and threw right handed.〔Riley, James (2002). ''The Biographical Encyclopedia of the Negro Baseball Leagues''. Carroll & Graft. ISBN 978-0-78-670959-5.〕〔New York Amsterdam News, May 11, 1968 – McDuffie Baseball Star Dies.〕 Born in Mobile, Alabama, McDuffie proved to be a reliable and durable pitcher in a long career that spanned from 1930 through 1954, playing for several teams in different leagues across the United States, Canada and Latin America.〔Powell, Larry (2009). ''Black Barons of Birmingham: The South's Greatest Negro League Team and Its Players''. McFarland & Company. ISBN 978-0-7864-3806-8.〕 During that time, he built a reputation as a strong armed hurler who was able to challenge hitters with his live fastball. His repertoire of pitches also included a sinker, slider, curveball, and a deceptive changeup.〔Martin, Alfred M.; Martin, Alfred T. (2008). ''The Negro Leagues in New Jersey: A History''. McFarland and Company. ISBN 978-0-7864-3900-3.〕 Total records are not known at this time, but McDuffie probably amassed nearly 200 wins along the way in the many baseball circuits in which he played. Besides, McDuffie was a good hitter, swift baserunner and unrivalled self-promoter. But he often got more attention for his handsome looks, flashy dress, gold jewelries, flamboyant behavior and bevy of girlfriends than for his ball playing.〔The Biographical Encyclopedia of the Negro Baseball Leagues.〕 A crowd pleaser, he was known for wearing a jacket with the words ''The Great McDuffie'' emblazoned on the back in large letters.〔Porter, David L. (2000) ''Biographical Dictionary of American Sports: G-P''. Greenwood. ISBN 978-0-31-331175-8.〕 ==Professional career==
