Al Mattern pitched five years for the Boston Braves, in 1908-12. During his time with them, they were called the Doves, then the Rustlers, and finally the Braves. Whatever they were called, Boston had three straight last-place finishes from 1909-1911, going a combined 142-315, which gave Mattern plenty of opportunities to lose. Still, the left-handed spitballer was also Boston’s ace, winning a third of its games in 1909, a feat that the Hall of Fame recognized him for. It certainly wasn’t for his 36-58 career record. When Mattern was done pitching to home plate, he pitched deals on Buicks to his neighbors back in the same little hamlet in western New York where spent his entire life. - SABR
