Year Inducted – 1984
Considered by many as one of the best sponsors of youth baseball of the time. For eight years Brown sponsored Canton Road Furniture in the A League. Those eight seasons were highlighted by the 1951 contingent who were the Northeast Ohio champs, and the 1952 squad that finished second in the state. Besides sponsoring on the A level, “Brownie” also made many contributions and sponsored many youth leagues in the Springfield-Lakemore communities.
