Magee wasn't the manager. He was only 25/26 years old during the 1915 season.

That would not have made him the youngest manager in baseball history. I believe Bucky Harris was 24 when he led the Washington Senators to a world championship in 1924. I stand corrected. Harris was 27.

Magee was born in 1889, which would have made a young-looking 35/36 at the time and, yes, he was the manager for part of that season..

11 plus 15 = 26.

Looks like was a player/manager for most of the season (118 games), with 35 games managed by John Ganzel. www.baseball-reference.com/managers/mageele01.shtml www.baseball-reference.com/managers/ganzejo01.shtml I've edited his Wikipedia entry to make this clearer.

"William Franklin "Birdie" Cree (October 23, 1882 – November 8, 1942) was a Major League Baseball outfielder. He spent his entire 8-year career (1908-1915) with the New York Highlanders, which would become the New York Yankees." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birdie_Cree

artolog, Thanks for the more complete name and life dates for Mr. Cree. We will add those to the record.

Edison Records was one of the early record labels that pioneered sound recording and reproduction and was an important player in the early recording industry. The first phonograph cylinders were manufactured in 1888, followed by Edison's foundation of the Edison Phonograph Company in the same year. The recorded wax cylinders, later replaced by Blue Amberol cylinders, and vertical-cut Diamond Discs, were manufactured by Edison's National Phonograph Company from 1896 on, reorganized as Thomas A. Edison, Inc. in 1911. Until 1910 the recordings did not carry the names of the artists. The company began to lag behind its rivals in the 1920s, both technically and in the popularity of its artists and halted production of recordings in 1929. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edison_Records
