"(Lefty) LeFebvre made his major-league debut with the Red Sox on June 10, 1938, at Fenway Park against the Chicago White Sox. He was 22 and sitting in the dugout when Red Sox manager Joe Cronin gave him the heads-up to grab a bat. Nervous and unsure of himself, LeFebvre stepped into the batter’s box and on the first offering from White Sox pitcher Monte Stratton, he hit a home run to the opposite field, over the Green Monster. Only a day earlier, he had graduated from Holy Cross." - Sports Writer Joe McDonald in The Providence Journal (01/24/2007)
