Ray Caldwell
[edit] Biography
Born on April 26, 1888 in Croydon, Pennsylvania, Ray Caldwell (Raymond Benjamin Caldwell) played for the New York Highlanders, New York Yankees, Cleveland Indians and Boston Red Sox over the course of his 12 year career. Caldwell broke into the bigs on September 9, 1910 with the New York Highlanders, and put up a 3.35 ERA in 255 innings pitched in 1911, his rookie year.
There is some disagreement on what was Ray Caldwell's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1915, when he posted a 2.89 ERA, won 19 games and struck out 130 batters. However, others believe that it was 1914, when he posted a 1.94 ERA, won 17 games and struck out 92 batters.
