Verdo Wilson "Ellie" Elmore (December 10, 1899 – August 5, 1969), was an American professional baseball outfielder, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB). Elmore played for the St. Louis Browns, in 1924.[1]
A curious fact is that all three of Elmore’s big league hits were doubles,[1] which ties him with Earl Hersh and Dennis Powell for the most hits in an MLB career, where all of the player’s hits were two-baggers.
