Posted By: <b>Robert S</b><p>Charles Monroe "Jeff" Tesreau had a short, but sparkling pitching career with the Giants, during which he won 115 games and lost 72, pitching in three World Series. He pitched a no-hitter in his rookie season of 1912 and went on to coach Dartmouth college following his 1918 retirement from the big leagues. He even ran for sheriff in Hanover, New Hampshire, but was disqualified for using his nickname, Jeff, on the ballot.<br /><br />Here's a photo (click to enlarge):<br /><br /><a href="http://www.vintageball.com/files/Copy_of_c1915_Tesreau.jpg"><img src="http://www.vintageball.com/files/Copy_of_c1915_Tesreau_re.JPG"></a><br />
