Probably not, probably named after the local pastime, something to do with the many flies there. OTOH, flies are found in baseball... hmm... I guess it’s still a mystery...

Didn’t know that Ruth was that old? He was born only a few miles away from where I was born in Baltimore, Md. We could have been friends but he was a lot older. Apparently a lot, lot older than me.
