description: "Alexander Joy Cartwright Jr. was a founding member of the New York Knickerbockers Base Ball Club in the 1840s. Although he was an inductee of the Baseball Hall of Fame and he was sometimes referred to as a \"father of baseball\", the importance of his role in the development of the game may have been exaggerated."
