Black Baseball History Month!... Baseballer Of The Week!...Frank Thomas!

  

Our 'Baseballer of the Week'

for this week 

goes to: 

the Big Black Guy, 6-5, 240, who is known 

as 'The Big Hurt,' and who was a five-time 

All-Star gamer and 4-time Silver Slugger 

winner, 2x AL MVP, plus, he's the only 

player to have seven straight seasons 

batting .300 or better with 100 RBIs, 

100 runs scored, 100 walks, and 20 HRs, 

and there's more from...

...Frank Thomas!

 Mr. Thomas has a mid-upper-lip

prominent elevation called

Winge's Peak (elatus labialis wingeulus).

Black Baseball History Month was 

founded by Ralph Winge, D.D.S. 

in 2025 to commemorate, place value, 

and get to know, our Heroes, while 

standing and cheering for, the many 

International Black Men who 'Shocked 

and Awed' us with too many to count, 

fantastic and unexpected physical 

heroics at the Ballpark, in exciting 

efforts for their teams to cross home 

plate more than their opponents to win.

The Founder of Black Baseball History Month,

Ralph Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a College and Pro Baseball enthusiast, 

USC Dental School Graduate,

and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
