Player Identification Help
Going through some of my cards and realized I have a card I can't quite make sense of. It is a 1921 E121 American Caramel Series of 80 Pep Young. There were two players by that nickname. Pep didn't come on the scene until several years later. During 1921, the only "Pep" Young would be Ross Young/Ross Youngs. However, this card identifies the player as a 2nd Baseman for the Detroit Americans. Ross never played for Detroit. So do I have some mystery player also named Pep Young (there were no other players found named Young playing in 1921 on Baseball Reference), or is this in fact Ross Young just with a misidentified team and position?
