Howard “Hank” Bierman
Howard “Hank” Bierman, EN60, was inducted into the St. Louis Amateur Baseball Hall of Fame in April 2022. At 89, he was the oldest inductee ever. Bierman was a hard-hitting outfielder and third baseman who could play all positions. In 1946, the New York Yankees offered him a contract that was rescinded when they found out he was only 13 years old. In 1951, he played professionally in the St. Louis Browns system, and during the ’50s, he also played in the New York Giants system and other minor league systems. In 1953 and 1954, he played while in the service at Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. He has lived in California since 1977.
