Q: This second baseman won a World Series ring with the Cleveland Indians. After his playing career was over he was a manager for the Fort Wayne Daisies and the Muskegon Lassies of the AAGPBL. And he was the subject of a scene in the film Teacher's Pet between Gig Young and Clark Gable. But his true claim to fame was that he was the first major league player to execute an unassisted triple play in a World Series. In 1920, he caught a line drive while playing second base. He stepped on second and then tagged a runner coming from first.
Who was he?
A: Bill Wambsganss
