The Christy Mathewson Little League Welcomes all Little League players and their fans to our beautiful town of Fleetville, Pennsylvania. Looking Back at Christy Mathewson Major League Pitcher The dominant pitcher of his era and one of the five all- time greats originally inducted into the Hall of Fame, Mathewson looked like the classic American hero: tall, blonde, and blue eyed, with a reputation for clean living and good sportsmanship that was often held up as a splendid example for the nation s youth. While those virtues were surely exaggerated, his pitching skills were not. He retired with 372 wins (fourth all time), 78 shut outs (third), and a 2.13 ERA (fifth). Mathewson was born on August 12, 1880 in Factoryville, PA, and he died on October 7, 1925 at Saranac Lake, NY. Mathewson played football and baseball for Bucknell University and was one of the first college educated men to enter the major leagues. Throwing right handed for the New York Giants (1900-1916) he won more than 20 games in each of the 13 seasons, and 30 or more in four of those years. He played for and managed the Cincinnati Reds from 1916 to 1918, and later served as president of the Boston Braves from 1923 to 1925. Christy Mathewson Little League was founded in 1957, before mandatory play existed within Little League. Located in Lackawanna, Wyoming, and Susquehanna counties, our league is a proud member of Pennsylvania District 17. We maintain 5 sixty foot fields, and two ninety foot fields in the following towns: Nicholson, Dalton, Factoryville, Lake Winola and Fleetville. We are honored to have been chosen by Little League Inc. and District 17 to host our first ever Little League Girls State Championship Tournament. We hope that your stay with us is an enjoyable one.
