William Victor Hawke (April 28, 1870 – December 11, 1902) was an American Major League Baseball player who pitched for three seasons, all in the National League, with a career record of 32 wins and 31 losses.[1]
Career
Born in Elsmere, Delaware, Hawke began his major league career with the St. Louis Browns in 1892. He pitched in 14 games that first season, with a 5–5 win–loss record and threw one shutout. Bill split 1893 season between the Browns and the Baltimore Orioles. It was for the latter that he pitched a no-hit, 5-0 victory against the Washington Senators on August 16, 1893.[1] It was the first no-hitter at the new distance from the pitcher's mound to home plate. For the 1893 season, the mound was moved from 50 feet to 60 feet 6 inches, the distance that is still used to this day.[2] Hawke finished his career the following season, with a 16-9 record for the National League champion Baltimore Orioles.[3]
Post-career
On December 11, 1902, he died of carcinoma[4] at the age of 32 in Wilmington, Delaware, and was interred at Wilmington and Brandywine Cemetery in Wilmington.[1]
He was inducted into the Delaware Sports Hall of Fame in 1992.[5]
