Bill Greason Autograph

William Henry Greason (born September 3, 1924) is an American former professional baseball player who later became a Baptist minister in Birmingham, Alabama.

He embarked with the 66th Supply Platoon, an all-black unit, for the Pacific Theater of Operations and took part in the Battle of Iwo Jima. More about Bill Greason

Greason was a 5 ft 10 in (1.78 m), 170 lb (77 kg) right-handed pitcher. After the war, he played professional baseball in the Negro leagues for the minor league Nashville Black Vols and Asheville Blues, and the major league Birmingham Black Barons, where he was a teammate of Willie Mays. According to Baseball Reference, Greason posted a 3–2 record in eight games pitched for the 1948 Black Barons, with four complete games, one shutout and one save, with an earned run average of 4.44. That season, in the last-ever Negro League World Series, he defeated the soon-to-be champion Homestead Grays to claim Birmingham's lone victory in the five-game series.

In 1950 and 1951, he also played for the Charros de Jalisco of the independent (outside "Organized Baseball"), racially integrated Mexican League. Read even more about Bill Greason at Wikipedia
