Francisco Paquito Montaner Baseball player
Francisco "Paquito" Montaner (August 16, 1894 – April 5, 1945) was a Puerto Rican pitcher from Ponce. He was the first baseball player to throw a "no-hitter" in Puerto Rican baseball, an event that took place on 10 December 1911. He is honored with the name of one of the largest stadiums in Puerto Rico, the professional baseball league's Francisco Montaner Stadium in Ponce. In 1955, he was inducted into the Puerto Rico Sports Hall of Fame and, in 1983, into the Galeria de los Inmortales del Deporte Ponceño (Ponce's Gallery of the Inmortals of Ponce Sports).
