Recap
William Ellsworth "Dummy" Hoy, born on May 23, 1862, in Houcktown, Ohio, was a deaf baseball player who overcame significant challenges to excel in Major League Baseball. Hoy lost his hearing due to meningitis at the age of three, which led him to attend the Ohio School for the Deaf, where he learned to communicate using sign language.
