Heart-stopping stats

 Hubert Glenn spent 1944 with the NNL Philadelphia Stars, winning 4 and losing 1 with a 3.65 ERA. At the plate he hit .360 with 3 homers and 8 RBIs in 25 at-bats. He pinch-hit in two games the next year, going 0 for 2, and that was his Negro League career. 

In 1951 he was pitching up in western Canada for the Claresholm Meteors of the Alberta Foothills League and put together a sweet stat line. At the plate he hit .535 (53 for 99) with 9 home runs, 17 doubles, and 4 triples and 21 walks for a 1.060 slugging percentage and .617 on-base percentage. On the mound he had a 17-4 record and struck out 207 batters against just 34 walks allowed in 166 innings. 

He was still with Claresholm in 1953, and hit .450 with 13 homers, 14 doubles, and 6 triples among his 62 hits. He won 16 games and lost 7.  

Those are the only two seasons statistics are available for him, but he played for Claresholm from 1951 to 1954.
