Early life

From 1927 to 1929, Gore played for the combined Chatham-Harwich team in the Cape Cod Baseball League.[2] He returned to the Cape League in 1934 to play for Barnstable, where he was a crowd favorite, known for his "chatter, pepper, and flashy fielding."[3][4][5]

Umpiring career

Before being promoted to the major leagues in 1947, Gore umpired in the Canadian-American League in 1937 and 1938, in the Eastern League from 1939 to 1942, and in the International League from 1942 to 1946.[6] He umpired in the 1951 and 1953 World Series and two All-Star Games (1949 and 1956).[7]

In December 1956, NL president Warren Giles released Gore from the league to make room for younger umpires Ken Burkhart and Tony Venzon.[6]

Later life

Gore moved to New Hampshire in his later years. He died there after a brief illness in September 1986. He was 78.[8]
