David is correct, that the current
encyclopedias show Cy Wright as a righty hitter. David would know, he’s
the vice-chair of the SABR Biographical Research Committee.
Currently, the most authoritative online source
is Retrosheet.org

A quick check show that 9th Edition
of MacMillan Baseball Encyclopedia (1994) did show Ceylon Wright as a lefty
hitter.

I am not sure where you saw the BL
indication but the Biographical Committee database lists him as
David Vincent

I tseems that he is a RH hitter but SABR has him listed as a Lefty
hitter.
Is there anyway to correct this in our records?
