David Dale Alexander (April 26, 1903 – March 2, 1979), nicknamed "Moose," was a Major League Baseball player for the Detroit Tigers (1929–1932) and Boston Red Sox (1932–1933). Dale "Moose" Alexander was a 6 foot, 3 inch, 210 lb. first baseman. One of the American League's better hitters during his first four seasons, Alexander led the league in hits in 1929 and won a batting title in 1932, but a lack of defensive capability coupled with a leg injury ultimately cut short his Major League career.

    When Alexander Pope strolled in the city
    Strict was the glint of pearl and gold sedans.
    Ladies leaned out more out of fear than pity
    For Pope’s tight back was rather a goat’s than man’s.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
