Leon "Caddy" Joseph Cadore (November 20, 1891 – March 16, 1958) was a right-handed American pitcher from 1915 to 1924. Cadore shares an MLB record for the most innings pitched in a single game (26).[1] In 1920, both Cadore and Joe Oeschger pitched all 26 innings for their respective teams in a game that was eventually called a tie due to darkness. He attended Gonzaga University, where he played college baseball for the Bulldogs.[2] He was a roommate of Casey Stengel while with the Brooklyn Dodgers.[3]
Early life
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Cadore was orphaned at 13 and went to live with his uncle, Joe Jeannot, in northern Idaho in Hope, a village east of Sandpoint on the shore of Lake Pend Oreille.[4] Cadore graduated from Sandpoint High School, then attended Gonzaga University in Spokane from 1906 to 1908.[2]
Cadore served as an officer in the U.S. Army during the First World War.[5]
Other sources cite Cadore's birthplace as Muskegon, Michigan.[6]
Personal
Cadore married Maie Ebbets, daughter of Brooklyn Dodgers owner Charles Ebbets. After a career on Wall Street in the 1920s, they moved to Hope in the 1930s to mine the family copper interests.[4][7] His wife died in 1950 and he succumbed to cancer at age 66 at the Veterans Hospital in Spokane in 1958. Cadore is buried at Pinecrest Memorial Park in Sandpoint.
