    At that time, Chance was manager of the New York Americans (aka Yankees), Irwin was business manager of the club (The times dispatch., February 13, 1913, Page 6, co. 3). On February 15, 1913 (date on sticker 2/15/13), Chance and Irwin sailed for Bermuda on the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company's steamer Arcadian (New-York tribune., February 15, 1913, Page 12, col. 5).

    Hall of Fame Baseball player and manager: "Best known as the first baseman in the Tinker-to-Evers-to-Chance double-play combination made famous in the 1910 poem, Chance was a skillful fielder and hitter; yet he earned special recognition as the Chicago Cubs' inspirational player-manager. He guided the Cubs' dynasty, winning four pennants in five years (1906-10) to gain the nickname The Peerless Leader. The club's 116 victories against only 36 losses in 1906 remain unmatched in Major League history" baseballhall.org/hof/chance-frank He managed the New York Yankees in 1913 and 1914
