    "George Joseph Young (April 1, 1890-March 13, 1950) was a professional Major League Baseball player who played for the Cleveland Naps in 1913. His entire professional career lasted only 2 games." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Young_(baseball)

    He also played in 1913 and 1914 with the Charleston Senators of the Ohio State Leage, a Class D league in the minors. Some of his Cleveland teammates were well known hitters, including Joe Jackson and Nap Lajoie. Both of which hit over .400 in 1 season.

    Interesting to see this size of the catcher's glove.

[F.E. "Fin" Wilson, Cleveland AL (baseball)] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    Fin Wilson was born on Sunday, December 9, 1888, in East Fork, Kentucky. Wilson was 25 years old when he broke into the big leagues on September 26, 1914, with the Brooklyn Tip-Tops. www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=wilsofi01 the problem I have with this photo is baseball almanac doesn't show any player with even just the last name Wilson having ever played a single game for any Cleveland team 1908-1919 (Blues, Naps, or Indians) and they show Fin Wilson playing for Brooklyn in 1914/15 and not any MLB before that. Baseball-reference.com also has him only playing 1914/15 Debut September 26, 1914 Final Game September 27, 1915 and read more about the Tiptops here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooklyn_Tip-Tops this one is a true mystery, why the heck would Fin Wilson be in a Cleveland uniform?

[Willie Mitchell, Cleveland AL (baseball)] (LOC)

    At age 20 in 1910, Mitchell was one of the American League's top lefthanders, going 12-8 (2.60) for Cleveland. When he went 14-8 in 1913, his 1.74 ERA was third-best in the league. He led the Indians in wins and losses (12-17), games, complete games, and strikeouts in 1914. www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=mitchwi01
