George Suggs

.

Suggs made his major league debut on April 21, 1908, for the Detroit Tigers. Besides playing for Detroit (1908-09), Suggs also played for the Cincinnati Reds (1910-13) and the Federal League Baltimore Terrapins (1914-15). Suggs led the National League in least number of walks per nine innings in 1910 and is ranked 74th on the all-time list in that category. He was a two time twenty game winner (1910, 1914) and came just one win shy of the mark in 1912. Suggs finished his career with a 3.11 ERA and 99 wins.

Following his retirement from major league baseball, Suggs took a very active role in promoting baseball in his hometown of Kinston, North Carolina. He managed two independent (known then as "outlaw") teams in Kinston, the Kinston Robins and the Kinston Highwaymen. He was also the designer of their stadium, West End Park which was modified in 1925 for the Virginia League Kinston Eagles. He was one of the initial inductees in the Kinston Professional Baseball Hall of Fame on February 11, 1983.
