The hook is, I suspect completely factually incorrect: are we really suggesting that nobody who played baseball, anywhere at any level between 1914 and 1972 other than this chap had a moustache? If you're going to use the hook, I'd suggest tightening it to "Major League Baseball player". However, I'm not really sure if it is appropriate anyway: the source says "Wally Schang may have been the last one to grow a mustache before Bordagaray, when he caught for the 1914 Philadelphia Athletics."

- It's actually very well accepted that facial hair, which was highly prevalent in MLB around the turn of the 20th century, became unacceptable. That's why he was made to shave it, and why it was a big deal when the A's grew them in the 1970s. Sources back up that Schang was the last player documented as wearing a mustache regularly.

Looks good to me now. Would also accept "which was likely to have been" if you want to make it a little stronger. Good to go. Harrias talk 16:03, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
