	The Morning News - One Hit Wonder, by Dave Reidy
		Lindstrom was born on Chicago’s South Side in 1936, the same year his father, Freddie Lindstrom, retired from the Brooklyn Dodgers.

	Freddie Lindstrom - BR Bullpen
		Freddie Lindstrom is generally considered one of the worst selections that the Hall of Fame has made.
		That said, he was a decent enough player, which got attention since third basemen of his era were rarely very good (he also played many games in the outfield during the second half of his career due to back injuries which prevented him playing at third).
		His son Chuck Lindstrom had one game in the majors.

	Third Base: The Crossroads, Part Three -- The Hardball Times
		Lindstrom was a good-hitting young third baseman who was suddenly moved to the outfield at age 25 (a fate, as I recall Bill James once wryly noting, that somehow never befell Pie Traynor, Brooks Robinson or Graig Nettles).
		Lindstrom then suffered repeated injuries and was completely finished at age 30.
		On the rare occasions Chapman's name is raised today, it's almost always in connection to his ugly race-baiting confrontations with Jackie Robinson that took place during Chapman's otherwise forgettable stint as manager of the Philadelphia Phillies.

		The 18-year veteran's downfall was provided by 18-year-old rookie Freddie Lindstrom (4-5 with two RBI), who added a spectacular defensive play to his offensive display.
		He was beaten this afternoon for the second time in the World Series of 1924, and the mainspring in the Giant offensive that overwhelmed him, 6-2, was the baby of the Giants, [Freddie] Lindstrom, age 19 (sic); big-league experience, one year.
		It made no difference to the boy that he was facing the man whose presence had destroyed the confidence of batters over a period of almost a score of years.

		He was replaced by a pinch-runner and Lindstrom sacrificed him to second.
		Left fielder Irish Meusel, anticipating that Lindstrom would field the grounder, got a late start getting to the ball.
