Money Pitcher could not have been written without the help of many individuals. At the top of the list is Robert D. Warrington of the Philadelphia Athletics Historical Society. Not only did he inspire the idea for this book, but he read earlier drafts of the manuscript, offered invaluable criticism, and gave me permission to publish rare photographs from his extensive collection. Bob cultivated my own interest in the Philadelphia Athletics many years ago when I curated an exhibition at the Chester County Historical Society entitled Baseball’s White Elephants: Connie Mack and the Philadelphia Athletics. Since then we have collaborated on baseball conferences, radio interviews, and historical marker dedications. In the process, Bob has become a dear friend whose work on behalf of the Athletics deserves to be honored with the dedication of this book.
