Indians owner Alva Bradley lobbied for night baseball in Cleveland. It took him two years to get the votes needed to go ahead with a seven game night schedule. The first year the Indians averaged 30,000 per night game.

There were plenty of problems that occurred including Bob Feller's sore arm in 1937. The nation expected big things from Feller in his first full season but he did not pitch regularly until the latter part of the year.

Johnny Allen had a record season going in 1937 then was sidelined with appendicitis and  an eventual operation. He won fifteen games and lost only one.

The Indians traded for catcher Rollie Hemsley them found out why his nickname was "Rollicking Rollie." He had a severe drinking problem that led to fines and suspensions and a near exit from the game. Hemsley would be one of the first members of Alcoholics Anonymous and save his baseball career.

Those are just some of the stories being put together for another possible book. Stay tuned for more..........
