!SOURCE: Email from Steven M. Law to Weldon Whipple, 4 Mar 2010. Regarding his listing in the 1930 census as Lyle Law, Steven writes: "I remember noticing the Lyle. Perhaps his parents they changed his name at some point early on?"

!SOURCE: BaseballLibrary.com: "Law was largely responsible for the Pirates' World Championship in 1960, when he captured the Cy Young Award with a 20-9 record and a league-high 18 complete games. Despite nursing a late-season sprained ankle, he won the first and fourth games of the Series and had a no-decision in the famed seventh game, won by the Pirates on Bill Mazeroski's ninth-inning homer."
