Theodore Amar Lyons (December 28, 1900 - July 25, 1986) was an American professional baseball starting pitcher, manager and coach. He played 21 big-league seasons, all of them with the Chicago White Sox. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1955. Lyons broke into the major leagues in 1923 after playing his collegiate baseball at Baylor University. He recorded his first 2 wins as a relief pitcher in a doubleheader on October 6, 1923, making him one of the first pitchers to perform the feat. He worked his way into the starting rotation the following year, when he posted a 12-11 record and 4.87 ERA. Over the following 18 seasons, he won 20 or more games three times (in 1925, 1927, and 1930) and became a fan favorite in Chicago. Lyons was such a draw among the fans that, as his career began to wind down in 1939, manager Jimmy Dykes began using him only in Sunday afternoon games, which earned him the nickname "Sunday Teddy".
