    Notes:

    Hall of Fame - Cambridge Sports Hall of Fame:
    Robert 'Bush' McWhirter was from the old school, and it was a great day for baseball in Galt when he came to town to coach the Galt Terriers in 1921.

    McWhirter, a Toronto native who had played professional baseball with the AAA Toronto Maple Leafs \endash he turned down an offer from the rival Baltimore Orioles \endash and was highly recommended, took over the reigns and helped develop countless local boys into top-notch players.

    One of those players, the late Jack Murphy, who played for McWhirter and had a lifelong interest in local baseball, considered McWhirter to be the single most important factor in the rise of baseball locally.

    McWhirter, a catcher, turned professional in 1909 with the Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League. At the Maple Leaf training camp in Macon, Georgia, his arm went "dead," killing a promising career......
