An undated photo of Bill in a Philadelphia Stars uniform. The caption: "STILL PLAYING -- Bill Cash, one time catching great of the Philadelphia Stars is in Philadelphia awaiting call by a leading minor league baseball team. He may play with the Hollywood Stars on the Pacific Coast." Well, that never happened.
The Hilldales, one of the most powerful teams in the old Eastern Colored League, was founded by Ed Bolden, who eventually founded the Philadelphia Stars in 1933. Hilldales Park, on McDade Boulevard in Yeadon, Pa., just outside of Philadelphia, is now home to a struggling strip mall.
Bill, playing for the Mexico City Red Devils, waits to get into a game, sharing the dugout with a young fan.
