- Source: Bill McCorry
William Charles McCorry (July 9, 1887 – March 22, 1973) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the St. Louis Browns in 1909. He had a long career as a player/manager in the minor leagues that lasted as late as 1942, including lengthy stints with the Albany Senators and Ogden Reds. He also served as traveling secretary for the New York Yankees and general manager of the Augusta Yankees.
In the late 1940s, McCorry also served as a scout. The Yankees sent him to Birmingham in 1949 to evaluate Willie Mays, but they passed on pursuing the prospect after McCorry complained that he "couldn't hit a curveball."
