Grover Cleveland Alexander

Grover Cleveland Alexander was a major league pitcher and Hall of Famer who was named after a president and was portrayed in a movie by a future president.

For a Hollywood depiction of an American rural baseball stadium at the turn-of-the-20th-century see "The Winning Team: Doris Day, Ronald Reagan (1952): Grover Cleveland Alexander becomes one of baseball's greatest pitchers, with his wife's support" which I saw on Turner Classic Movies (TCM).

Grover Cleveland Alexander:Grover Cleveland Old Pete Alexander (February 26, 1887 - November 4, 1950) was an American professional baseball pitcher.
