Question
Steve Corchek (only spelling it like it sounds). Said he played for the Washington Senators. Met a family member back in the late 40's, early 1950's, while visiting/playing baseball in Kentville, Nova Scotia, Canada. Can't seem to find through googling. Thank you so much for your efforts in advance.
Susan, I don't know if would be possible to run Korcheck down through his old club, but it is worth a try. They might have contact information on their former players or be able to tell you where to run this information down. You will want to contact the Minnesota Twins, the franchise that was originally the old Washington Senators. Good luck.

Hi, Susan,
Your guy is Steve "Hoss" Korcheck, a catcher, who played for the Washington Senators in short stints for four seasons during the 1950s.
