Tough trivia #30

Which member of the Miracle Mets turned down a contract offer from the Browns in favor of baseball?

Answer to #29: Emerson Cole of Toledo starred in place of injured Marion Motley, but former Browns signee Y.A. Tittle led the Colts to a 21-17 comeback win at the Glass Bowl. Cole would be a Browns draft pick in 1950, but the primary career contribution of this African American came through his work with the U.S. Civil Rights Commission.
