Born Denton True Young. He went by the name Dent Young in his early years. Young was also known as "Farmer Young" and "Farmboy Young". During his tryout, Young impressed the scouts, recalling years later, "I almost tore the boards off the grandstand with my fast ball."Cy Young's nickname came from the fences that he had destroyed using his fastball. The fences looked like a cyclone had hit them. Reporters later shortened the name to "Cy", which became the nickname Young used for the rest of his life.
