Perhaps it has another, more proper name ? :haha:
Here's the answer:
In Jail. LeFlore was an inmate at the Southern Michigan Coerrectional Facility in Jackson - serving time for armed robbery - when Martin went to see him play in 1973 and went on to win two base-stealing titles - in the American League with the Tigers (1978), and in the National League with the Montreal Expos (1980). He is the only player to have done so.
Neil Armstrong was the first American to win the Tour de France bicycle race.
