Frank Lee Duncan Jr (February 14, 1901 – December 4, 1973) was an American baseball player in the Negro leagues from 1920 to 1948. He was primarily a catcher for the Kansas City Monarchs, handling their pitching staff for over a decade. While playing part-time, he managed the Monarchs to two pennants in 1942 and 1946; he managed the Monarchs for the longest of all managers in team history with six and he won 281 games as skipper, a club record.[2] He caught two no-hitters with the Monarchs, in 1923 and 1929.
