Hat tip to ChasingAnEpiphany for pointing out a super cool coincidence (that was not accounted for since most minor league box scores from this era are not available): Babe Ruth played his first professional game on April 22, 1914, as a pitcher for the minor league Baltimore Orioles, pitching a shutout - and thus picking up the win -against the Buffalo Bisons!

#10 - If you followed Wikipedia to Grover Alexander's namesake's page (the 22nd and 24th US President Grover Cleveland), you likely found the tree in question, located at his birthplace in Caldwell, NJ - 07006
