Posted By: <b>bdogg74</b><p>I have recently found out that I had a great, great uncle who pitched for the White Stockings and Tigers in 1901 and 1903 respectfully. Is there an online website that I can go to to find out if he has a baseball card out there? <BR><BR>Your help would be priceless, and GREATLY appreciated. . . .<BR><BR>His name was John "Buckshot" Skopec, and actually had the dubious distinction of giving up the first AL homerun in history. . . <BR><BR>THANK YOU!!!

Posted By: <b>scott brockelman</b><p>according to my information he does not appear on any vintage card issues, he may appear in some team photos, such as sporting life premiums or sporting life team photos. i have a 1904 coming and i'll see if he i pictured on either team.<BR><BR>scott
