-*''Grover and his brother [[Lou Lowdermilk]] both pitched for the 1911 Cardinals. Grover was 6'4" and lean, with long fingers, and was favorably compared to [[Walter Johnson]] - except that he couldn't control his blazing [[fastball]]. He was a member of the 1919 Black Sox but was not involved in the scandal.'' – [http://www.baseballlibrary.com/baseballlibrary/ballplayers/L/Lowdermilk_Grover.stm William A. Borst]
