All I could come up with was:

Iron Mike Pitching Machines

They sure didn't give you an easy one, I searched bloody everywhere.

baseball player maybe?? I see no other reason Pitching Machines would be named like that....

do a research report on Iron Maiden and say you misread the assignment

Kyp

The other day, in study hall, i farted really loud, you know...so the guys would laugh...and i swear it was so hanus that Susie Johnson almost ralphed up her salsbury steak.
it was freakin sweet...

Kyp may be on to something but it is just a shade thin on information.

"Iron Mike" Prendergast was a pitcher with the Chicago Cubs. The only notable mention I can find is that , in 1917, he was traded to the Piladelphia Phillies with a catcher named "Pickles" Dillhoefer and $55,000 in exchange for Hall of Famer Grover Alexander and his "personal" cather, "Reindeer" Bill Killefer. But this was in 1917.
The following year, the Cubs made to the world series, only to lose it to the Babe Ruth Red Sox.

The 1920 World Series was won by the Cleveland Indians against the Brooklyn Robins. I've checked both team rosters but there was no player named Prendergast on either of those teams.

This probably isn't the right answer.

As far as I can tell "Iron Mike" only lasted 4 seasons in the Bigs. His last season was the 1919 season.
