Although he was a proficient pitcher on some bad teams, Joe Lake is the player that sticks out to me as being the least deserving of those having 3 T206 cards. I can understand his New York card in the 150 series, and his St. Louis Browns (no ball) card in the 350/460 series. But why another card in the 460 only series? The only reason I can think is that ATC wanted more representation of the St. Louis Browns in the later series, and Joe was sadly one of the top Brownies among slim pickings. Harry Howell (hands at waist) is the only other Browns player in the 460 only series.
