Bill Lelivelt

William John Lelivelt (October 21, 1884 - February 14, 1968) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the Detroit Tigers in 1909 and 1910. He played in 5 games and had a record of 0-2 in 29 innings pitched with an earned run average of 3.41.

In November 1909, a group of players from the 1909 pennant winning Tigers toured Cuba and played 12 exhibition games against two integrated Cuban teams, Habana and Almendares. Lelivelt was among the Tigers players who toured Cuba. The tour drew wide attention in Cuba, where baseball was already very popular. Demonstrating the high level of play in Cuba, the Tigers lost 8 of the 12 games to the integrated Cuban baseball teams. To take advantage of the interest in the tour of the American baseball players, the Cabañas Company printed a series of baseball cards showing the members of the Almendares, Habana and Detroit baseball teams. Lelivelt's Cabañas baseball card is pictured to the right.

The Detroit roster, from a game played on November 18, 1909, consisted of the following players: Davey Jones, Charley O'Leary, George Moriarty, Matty McIntyre, Boss Schmidt, George Mullin, Heinie Beckendorf, R. Hopke and William Lelivelt.
