United States, Baseball Player October 30, 1916 – March, 13, 1995.
Leon Day was an American professional baseball pitcher who spent the majority of his career in the Negro leagues. Recognized as one of the most versatile athletes in the league during his prime, Day could play every position.
I was glad to play in the Negro Leagues. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
It would mean a lot to me to get into the Hall of Fame, to be grouped with some of the greatest players in history.
Until spring training in 1946, the only time I pitched was in 1945 in the GI World Series.
I was in Cuba in the winter of 1937. I was playing in Cuba, and I'm in the shower, and I slipped and caught myself with my right arm. I felt something pull right then. Then, in '38, when I came back, my arm was messed up.
