He was the fourth of five children of Lulu Fisk Stotz the third child of a German immigrant (1862) named Kristjian and married first generation German-American Juliana Eddinger, in 1877 in Williamsport.

The initial 1939 games were played at Park Point, facing the Susquehanna River A field further north at Memorial and Demarest Streets in Williamsport housed the 1940 and 1941 summer seasons during World War II (1939/1941-1945).

Each team was managed individually by Stotz (Lycoming Dairy) and brothers George (Lundy Lumber) and Bert Bebble (Jumbo Pretzel).

Its clubhouse contains numerous articles of historical interest worthy of viewing, and holds an Open House every day during the Little League World Series usually scheduled in August.

A highly principled man, Stotz's conscience did not permit him to remain; he left the organization he founded of Little League Baseball Inc. in late November 1955 over differences centered on commercialization and central control issues with the management of what is locally abbreviated as L.L.B.
