Doris Sams was the most celebrated of Tennessean's who ever played in the league ...

Doris Sams Outfielder/Pitcher. Born February 2, 1927. Batting champion, 1949; Player of the Year, 1947, 1949. Assigned to the perennial underdog Muskegon Lassies in 1946, righthander Sams took the mound 25 times, posting an 8-9 record and a 3.78 ERA while batting .274 in 42 games. Recognizing her batting ability, manager Bill Wambsganss played her in the outfield in 1947. Her .280 mark was the third highest in the league, and she tied Rose Gacioch's record of 31 outfield assists in a season. Sent to the mound 19 times, she posted an 11-4 record with a 0.98 ERA, pitching a perfect underhand game (the third such in league history) against the Fort Wayne Daisies on August 18, 1947. For her outstanding performance, the sophomore player was elected Player of the Year.

In 1949 Sams won the batting championship with a .279 mark and took the mound 28 times, posting a 15-10 record with a 1.58 ERA. These feats earned her another Player of the Year.

When the Muskegon Lassies moved to Kalamazoo in 1950, Sams connected with overhand pitching to bat over .300 for four seasons. Her overhand delivery, though, wasn't equal to her underhand style: she went 12-13 in 1950 and 0-1 the following year, her last as a pitcher. Setting a new league record with 12 home runs in 1952, Sams batted .314. At the end of the 1953 season, she retired, never having played for the championship.The next year, the Lassies upset the mighty Fort Wayne Daisies to win the World Series, a year too late for Sams.
