Career highlights and awards

Leon Joseph Cadore (November 20, 1890 - March 16, 1968) was a right-handed American pitcher between 1915 - 1924. Cadore shares a MLB record for the most innings pitched in a single game (26). In 1920, both Cadore and Joe Oeschger pitched 26-innings for their respective teams in a game that was eventually called a tie due to darkness. He attended Gonzaga University.
