It's too bad that this is just about the only thing he's known for, even people who didn't know his name had heard the story. It's like those poor guys who dropped a fly ball in a World Series, it's always going to be in their obit, and the one thing everyone remembers about 'em. Thanks EveningStar.

My wife’s great uncle (Mike Cvengros) pitched in a World Series game in the 20’s. Most notably everyone remembers him as the family member who pitched to Babe Ruth in a World Series game, giving up a 3 run homer.
