Great thread about a player Connie Mack said was the best 3rd baseman he ever saw. He did innovate the charging 3rd baseman and is said to have thrown out Jennings, Keeler, and McGraw who were trying to bunt for hits in his first game against Baltimore.

Jimmy Collins shares my hometown of Buffalo, N.Y. His first professional team was the Buffalo Bisons in the Eastern League. After the 1903 World Series he was feted at a banquet in his honor at a hotel in Buffalo. He moved back to Buffalo after his retirement and died there in 1943 before his enshrinement in Cooperstown.

Chickering cabinets are really beautiful photos. Here's Collins in 1899
