Let's see those 1909 Pirates
Love this thread. Great stuff top to bottom.
I'm trying to get autographs of the starting 9. Only need Dots Miller, Bill Abstein, and Chief Wilson. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Good article. I live near there and work in Carnegie often. I'll have to check out the museum. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Enjoyed the article. Always nice to see something about vintage baseball in a modern newspaper. One question for the Pronunciation Police: what is the correct way to say Carnegie? Have always heard it said "CAR-na-gie", emphasis on the first syllable. A while back I watched an American Experience TV show about Andrew Carnegie and he was referred to throughout as "Car-NAY-gie", emphasis on second syllable. I also listened to a YouTube with some old-timer who claimed to have known Wagner in Car-NAY-gie. Said "Hah-nuss" as well so he passed that test. Some of you guys are local to the area. What do you call the place?
|
Here in Pittsburgh we say: car-NEY-gee

The only one I have a scan of handy:

Some snapshots from what I believe is 1908 but many of the players were on the 1909 team.

Completed my run of D322 Tip Top Bread catchers yesterday.
Picked up the Gibson in 2001...O'Connor in 2012...and Simon in 2018. Project only took 17 years! One of the most visually appealing prewar sets. Patrick |
