Eddie Gaedel, a little person known for a string of celebrity gigs, became a participant in one of the most outlandish publicity stunts in baseball history, when in 1951, he came to bat for the hapless St. Louis Browns. Although Eddie gained a great deal of notoriety for the stunt, a few years later, he was the victim of a  murder that remains unsolved to this day.   #Veeck #Gaedel #StLouis #MLB #Baseball #Orioles #ChiSox #ChicagoThe Dead Ball Podcast is created by Tim Scott.

As an adult, Eddie Gaedel stood just 3'7" and weighed 65 pounds. Although bullied most of his life, Eddie became an overnight sensation in 1951 when he became the first "Little person" to appear in a Major League Baseball game.  Eddie would learn that fame has a dark side though, as a few years later he would tragically die under mysterious circumstances.
