Satchel Paige's Corrected 1948 Stats (449 words) |
 | I have seen many accounts of "Satchell Page" in my readings of 1930's newspapers, so it comes as no surprise that somebody would make that mistake. |
| I would like to thank both Pete Palmer (of Total Baseball) and Lyle Spatz (Society for American Baseball Research - Baseball Records Committee) for going the extra yard after I had brought this to their attention. |
| Pete checked the official game reports from Cooperstown and discovered that in these reports both Paige and Page had been given credit for two strikeouts and three walks. |
