- Born Dec. 5, 1888
During World War I, Porray served overseas as a pianist entertaining the troops. After the war, he toured on the Keith and Orpheum vaudeville circuits.
Today, Porray is best remembered for his unusual birthplace, as he is the only Major League Baseball player to have been born at sea. His birth certificate lists "At sea, on the Atlantic Ocean" as his birthplace.
Porray died at the age of 65 in Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania, and is interred at the Odd Fellows Cemetery in that town.
