	Charley Radbourn \| The BASEBALL Page
		Charles Radbourn is considered by many historians to be baseball's greatest 19th century pitcher.
		Radbourn was Charles or Charley until his amazing 1884 season, when he pitched 678 innings and earned the nickname “Old Hoss.” Interestingly, Radbourn’s surname was spelled “Radbourne” when he was an active player, but it was switched to the proper “Radbourn” many years after he died, by his sister.
		Radbourn was known to empty a bottle from time to time as well, and soon the two were in a feud that split the team into “Pro-Sweeney” and “Pro-Radbourn” factions.
