Some Famous People called Clyde Shoun
Clyde Shoun
Clyde Mitchell Shoun (March 20, 1912 – March 20, 1968) was an American professional baseball player. A left-handed pitcher, he was born in Mountain City, Tennessee, and known as "Hardrock", due to his fastball. He was the younger brother of professional basketball player Slim Shoun.
Shoun was 23 years old when he broke into the big leagues on August 7, 1935, with the Chicago Cubs. He played for the Cubs, Cincinnati Reds, St. Louis Cardinals, Boston Braves, and Chicago White Sox.
Shoun led the major leagues in games pitched with 54 in 1940 when he was a member of the Cardinals.
While with the Reds, Shoun no-hit the Boston Braves 1–0 on May 15, 1944. The lone baserunner came on a walk to his mound opponent, Jim Tobin, himself a no-hit pitcher just 18 days earlier on April 27, and well known for being a good-hitting pitcher.
Shoun missed the 1945 professional baseball season due to his service in the Navy during World War II. However, he continued to play baseball during the year while in the service.
Shoun died on his 56th birthday in the veterans center in Johnson City, Tennessee.
