1899 Louisville Team Photo

Posted By: Ol' Prof

As a sidebar, I recently picked up a 1900 Pirate Reunion ball signed in 1925. Signers include Tommy Leach, Deacon Phillipe, Jimmie Burke, Kitty Bransfield, Claude Ritchey, Jack Chesbro, C H ("Ginger") Beaumont, C L ("Chief") Zimmer, Fred Clarke, Jesse Tannehill, Honus, and my favorite, Barney Dreyfus, who owned the Louisville Colonels in 1899, and after having been told the franchise was about to be eliminated, bought controlling interest in the Pirates and "traded' Honus, Deacon Phillipe, Fred Clarke, Chief Zimmer, Tommmy Leach and Rube Waddell to the Bucs for Chesbro, Art Madison, Paddy Fox, John O'Brien and $25,000 in December of '99. The following spring, Chesbro was "assigned" back to the Pirates, where he remained until jumping to the Highlanders in 1903. Tannehill jumped to New York at the same time.
