In baseball 5'10 is short, if we were going to declare anything under 5'9 as short the lions share of players will be from 100 years ago and quite a few unfamiliar names.

Arlie Latham, "the Freshest Man on Earth"!
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Snuffy Stirnweiss is an amazing name! A few of the others are not consistent with this being a Family Friendly board!
