Though Ross Youngs has been enshrined in the National Baseball Hall of
Fame since 1972, few have given his remarkable career its due. Born in
Shiner and raised in San Antonio, Youngs played his first game as a
professional at the age of sixteen, and just three years later, his
contract was purchased by the New York Giants, one of baseball's elite
teams in the early twentieth century. Tragically, his promising career
ended when he died from an illness at age thirty in 1927. Join author
David King in a journey to discover the amazing Youngs as he was and the
incredible legacy he left behind.
