Former Michigan great George Sisler went on to star for the St. Louis Browns and had the Major League Baseball record for hits in a season until Seattles Ichiro Suzuki broke his mark in 2004.

Michigan Made to Better Baseball
Prior to Michigan baseball entering Big Ten action in 1918, the Wolverines boasted a player and coach that would later become two of the most pivotal figures in Major League Baseball history.

For the record, Cazzie Russell will tell you himself that he did not actually build the Wolverines' basketball arena nor was he the sole reason behind it.
