Ed Dundon Faced Barriers
Manage episode 365857581 series 3334627
Ed Dundon grew up at the Ohio Institute for the Education of the Deaf and Dumb in Columbus, Ohio, the first residential secondary school in the United States to incorporate a baseball program. He became a pitcher, and at 6’0″ tall and weighing 170, began a baseball career.
First, he played at the major league level with Columbus in the American Association for two years beginning in 1883. Three years later, he became a member of the Nashville Americans where he played one season. His career ended in 1890 and three years later he died.
He overcame his hearing affliction, but not alcoholism. Listen as I tell about his one season with Nashville in the Southern League in 1886.
