Brothers Jack and Curly Ogden came from Swarthmore College to the major leagues.
En route, however, Jack got stuck in the International League, becoming the star
pitcher of seven successive Baltimore champions (1919-25), and winning 191 games.
His years with Baltimore were lucrative, though, due to high salaries and Little
World Series shares.
