Scott:
Here is the link to the Baseball-Reference.com website indicating that he played on the Kansas City Blues, do they have it wrong? http://www.baseball-reference.com/mi...gi?id=10c2d65b |

There are other photos of Stengel when he played with the KC Red Sox, also with Marysville (including a baseball card), but I haven't seen this actual image before. Scouring the internet, can't find it, but I'm sure it's out there somewhere.

What league did the Kansas City Red Sox play in?

Phil, it would probably take you about as long to use Google as to ask this question. You could also use the 'search' feature of this forum.
I fully understand your point, but it would be much easier to respond to if you would simply post it.

Scott:
I did a google search first and nothing came up, hence the question The bottom line is: I don't believe that the team pictured on the postcard is the same one that Casey Stengel played for and obviously then Stengel would not be pictured there. The scenario becomes even harder to believe when you state that there are other photos picturing Casey Stengel on this Kansas City Red Sox team (which I don't think is even a professional baseball team) when he played a total of 4 games in 1910 for a Kansas City minor league team, which I believe is correctly identified as the Blues on Baseball-Reference.com. How many photo opportunities would 4 games played lend itself to? Last edited by bcbgcbrcb; 03-08-2013 at 10:36 AM. |

Phil, that wasn't so difficult, was it?

I found the previous Net 54 post about it, don't remember seeing it before. It mentions a semi-pro team which could be the one on the postcard. I don't know that much about Stengel nor his amateur career and am not going to start endless research on it so I will graciously apologize for the misunderstanding and leave it as is.

Sure looks like him. Being left handed doesn't hurt the case...

Anyone have any Tigers Team postcards from 1935?

I don't blame you, Scott. If I had the chance to buy that postcard, then I would do the endless research involved, especially since it would pre-date 1910 when his T210 card was issued and which costs a fortune and I can't afford right now. This postcard would fill that spot in my collection and I would not have to spend thousands to get a 1910 Stengel card.
