Hall of Fame
A Golden Era Inductee (Pre-1950): The late Murray was a three-sport athlete at the Central State Normal School in the early 1900's. He played baseball, basketball and football from 1903-1905, excelling most notably on the baseball diamond for a team – at the time – that was considered to be the most successful in the history of the school. Murray went on to play 11 seasons in Major League Baseball (1906-1917) and was the starting right-fielder for the New York Giants in three consecutive World Series (1911, 1912 & 1913). In 1909, he led the National League in home runs and was second in both RBIs and stolen bases. Murray's lifetime batting average was .270 and his slugging percentage was .379.
