Who the hell is Lefty Leifield?

According to Aaron Rakers' bio at PortlandBeavers.com, Aaron (h)ails from Trenton, Ill., a city that claims Lefty Leifield, who amassed 124 wins and a 2.47 ERA in 296 big league games from 1905-1920 (Pittsburgh, Cubs, St. Louis), among its major league products.

Lefty was born in Trenton in 1883 and even won 20 games in 1907, with a 2.44 era.

Really?

Trenton existed in 1883?

Until baseball has definite proof of who did and didn't use steroids, McGwire should be in the Hall of Fame. Because even if he did use, whose to say that the guys he was playing against weren't using the same stuff?

Besides, then we'd get to hear his speech, and wouldn't that be interesting?
