Moses Fleetwood Walker- Walker played only 42 games for the Toledo Blue Stockings in 1884. He was such a great catcher that his backup went on to have a 26 year career and catching 1,600 games

Welday Walker- Moses's brother, Welday, played 5 games in Left Field for the Toledo Blue Stockings in 1884 as well.

Jackie Robinson- after 63 years of being barred from the MLB, Robinson is the third black Baseball player ever and first of the 20th century. He started his ten season career on April 15, 1947 with the Brooklyn Dodgers
