Blind Delta Reed
Blind Delta Reed was an American Blues singer. Little is known about him other than he had three recording sessions (1926, 1928, 1932) in which he recorded Down The Road Blues, Wildwood Flower, and I Shall Not Be Moved.

Some researchers believe that Blind Delta Reed is an alias of an already known Blues musician, however, it is uncertain if this is the case and who it is if so.

According to researchers Bob Eagle and Eric LeBlanc, Blind Delta Reed was Joe Reed (1901-1932). Joe Reed was also known as Kansas Joe Reed and recorded one song in 1914 at the age of 13. Joe Reed died at the age of 30 or 31 in a Car Accident.

LeBlanc also suggested that Blind Delta Reed is George K. Reed (1867-1938) who previously recorded from 1889-1902.

Eagle and LeBlanc also stated that most evidence points to J. Mark Starps being Blind Delta Reed.

Steve Henry
Steve Henry is a former MLB player. His son Charley also played in MLB. His father-in-law, John (1913-2003) played/coached/managed in MLB. His father Joseph (1920-1966) played in MLB and died after being struck in the head by a ball while coaching a game. Sadly, Steve Henry witnessed the tragedy in person as he was playing for the Cubs (whom his father coached for) at the time.

Cubs Third Base Coach Steve Winwood took over Holton's duties for the remainder the 2nd inning through the 6th when, ironically, Winwood was ejected for arguing a balk non-call.

Heston Charles (Asst. Hitting Coach) moved from Third Base to First Base to coach the rest of the night. Bench Coach Mark Edwin (also acting manager)* coached Third Base for the remainder of the game.

Jeremy Johns.

A movie was made entitled "The 30-year contract" that tells the story of Edwin's signing the 30 year contract with the Orioles in 1990 to a front office position. The Orioles and Edwin himself have mentioned numerous times that they weren't thinking seriously when the contract was signed as neither Edwin or the Orioles organization expected him to die before the contract was up. In 2002, Edwin stated he would remain a member of the Orioles front office until he died or retired. He ended up leaving after the 2020 season and joined the White Sox organization for the 2021 season.

He died on April 17, 2021 in Chicago, Illinois.

He was inducted into the Orioles Hall of Fame on April 17, 2022.
