Jackie Price

John Thomas Reid Price (November 13, 1912 – October 2, 1967) was an American Major League Baseball shortstop who played in seven games for the Cleveland Indians during the 1946 Cleveland Indians season.

He was known for delighting fans with his skills – such as batting while hanging upside-down or throwing three balls to three different players in one movement – and was dubbed "the Clown Prince of Baseball" for his other antics, which also included releasing a pair of five-foot boa constrictors on board a train.

Price briefly teamed up with Max Patkin, another baseball clown; together they were described by Boston Red Sox manager Lou Boudreau as the "funniest show I ever saw".

On October 2, 1967, Price died by suicide by hanging himself. Provided by Wikipedia
