    Gee, make fun of the guy cuz his ears are big? Maybe it allowed him to hear better and hold up big glasses. Maybe his wife liked having big ears to hang onto. Whatever, he pitched in the major leagues. And TedSher, ALL the players in the majors in "those days" were white.

    His name was James Ray Frost (1891-?). I found him in the World War I draft as a professional baseball player living in Peebles, Ohio and playing in Dayton, Ohio. He married Mary I., and by 1942 he was a bailiff at the Montgomery County Court House when he registered for the World War II draft. He most likely died between 1950-1970, since he doesn't appear in the Social Security Death Index which starts recording deaths around 1970.
