I am seeking info about the 1909 Minneapolis Tribune supplements. Does anyone know if the following checklist is complete?
Nick Altrock P
Fred Ohmstead P
Irv Young P
Jimmy Block C
Joe Rapp C
Warren Gill 1B
Jerry Downs 2B
Jimmy Collins 3B/manager
Andy Oyler SS
Tip O’Neill OF
Ollie Pickering OF
Lee Quillen OF
By and large, these are the players who played most of the games, with the exception of Gavvy Cravath, who played more than 100 games in the outfield. His absence might be explained by the fact he joined the team a bit later in the season, after a short stint in the American League. There were ten other players on the roster at some point during the season, but they didn’t play all that many games. There is one player for each position, plus an extra catcher and three pitchers, so it sorta seems logical this might be the complete set. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
