Jackie Price

John Thomas Reid Price (November 13, 1912 – October 2, 1967) was a 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 committed suicide by hanging himself. Provided by Wikipedia
