Career: Flyboy first saw baseball after returning from down south where he was working with the Wright Brothers to design a machine for people to fly.  After limited success he headed west and during his trip he saw his first game of base ball and decided to try the sport as his career since he had little faith that flying would ever be worth his efforts.  Joining the Kansas City Meat-Hooks Base Ball Club, Flyboy honed his skills throughout the Mid West.  Finally, after moving home to Simsbury, Flyboy was honored to be asked by the "Judge" and "Lucky" to join the Simsbury Taverneers.  Flyboy was heard to say "a finer group of ball strikers can not be found anywhere!".
