Description: Harold Henry Schumacher (November 23, 1910 – April 21, 1993), nicknamed "Prince Hal", was an American professional baseball player and right-handed pitcher who appeared in 391 games pitched (and 450 games in all) in Major League Baseball for the New York Giants (1931–42; 1946). Schumacher was hired as vice president in charge of sales in 1946. His job included visiting spring training camps touting the company’s bats. Willie Mays, Mike Schmidt, Reggie Jackson, Roberto Clemente and Willie McCovey used Adirondack bats exclusively; Bobby Thomson hit his “shot heard ’round the world” with an Adirondack. Schumacher stayed with the company for more than 20 years, earning a promotion to executive vice president in 1963. Harold L. Esch was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to J. Lester Esch and Martha L. Esch. The family moved to Orlando, FL in the 1930's where Harold developed, what would be, a life long passion for baseball. That passion would lead him to write a sports column for the Orlando Sentinel in the 1960's and become an avid collector for the sport.
