Who was the Milwaukee Brewers' starting third baseman on April 7, 1970, or the first game in the team's history?
The answer is Max Alvis, who was born in Jasper, TX on this day in 1938.
Alvis played 8 seasons with Cleveland and then was traded to Milwaukee for the 1970 season.
He hit 99 HR over a 5-year span with the Indians.
