Wilfred "Kid" Carsey (October 22, 1870 – March 29, 1960), was an American professional baseball player who was a pitcher in the Major Leagues from 1891 to 1901. He played for the Washington Statesmen, Philadelphia Phillies, St. Louis Cardinals, Washington Senators, New York Giants and Brooklyn Superbas. Carsey's pitching style was known mostly for his slow curveball and unconventional delivery, which involved snapping his wrist with little arm motion.[1][2]
