  • Mark in NOVA said:
    Magee wasn't the manager. He was only 25/26 years old during the 1915 season.
  • In Memoriam P. Wayne Nalbandian said:
    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.
  • In Memoriam P. Wayne Nalbandian said:
    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..
  • Mark in NOVA said:
    11 plus 15 = 26.
  • Art Siegel said:
    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.

    Played for the Tip Tops, then for the New York Giants for the next 5 seasons. Nickname: "Ty Cobb of the Federal League", stole 55 bases in 1915. www.baseball-almanac.com/players/player.php?p=kauffbe01
