Harmon, Charles - Chuck

CHARLES ‘CHUCK’ B. HARMON
aka CHARLIE FINE

Chuck also played under the name 'Charlie Fine' (to protect amateur status) while going to school and playing for the Indianapolis Clowns in 1947.

He was signed by the St. Louis Browns in 1947 but did not play for them. In 1952, his contract was purchased by the Cincinnati Reds and he made it to the Majors in 1954.

Chuck was the first black player for the Reds. He played for the Cincinnati Reds, St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Phillies from 1954 to 1957.
