  • Richard Norton said:
    Tom Needham (April 17, 1879 - December 13, 1926) was a professional baseball player from 1904 to 1914. His first four years, were with the Boston Beaneaters (Later the Boston Braves). Needham hit poorly, Hitting below .200 twice. After a brief appearance with the New York Giants in 1908, Needham played his last 6 years with the Chicago Cubs. Still, Needham hit badly, hitting over .200 just once. Despite hitting under .200 8 of his 11 seasons, Needham's career average was .209, due to his first season average of .260. Needham died in his home in Steubenville, Ohio at the age of 47. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Needham

[Zack Wheat, Brooklyn NL (baseball)] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Art Siegel said:
    LOC, note spelling of first name is either Zach or Zack on multiple Bain photos of him.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    Art Siegel, Yes, I noticed the various spellings as well. His name was Zachariah, so the Zach makes sense, but it appears he actually went by Zack. I'm taking the spelling on his Baseball Hall of Fame plaque as reliable, as well as his entry on Baseball Reference. I will put in corrections to bring all the spellings in line as Zack. Thanks for your note.
  • Art Siegel said:
    BHOF plaque does seem like a definitive way to go. Plus, he clearly used Zack in autographs.
