M116 Sporting Life Hughes
 

Could someone please name the city he is referred to playing for on his M116 card. thanks

Rochester by the looks of it. Not my card.

Thank you. Wow, did not know the M116's depicted minor league players. Guess will have to keep looking for a major league team card of his... Maybe 1914 Baseball Magazine Boston Braves team picture?!?

Jim, I believe the PSA flip is in error. Long Tom Hughes never played for Rochester, per baseball-reference.com. I believe the Sporting Life card David showed above is of "Salida" Tom Hughes, who did play for Rochester from 1911 until 1914. Per VCP, there are only a couple of cards of "Long" Tom Hughes, the easiest to find by far being his E91-C American Caramel card, which shows him with the Senators - there are a couple of these currently for sale on eBay.

Good catch, Val. Very impressive!

I agree that the above M116 should not have been labeled "Long" Tom Hughes but should read Tom Hughes. It is the same Tom Hughes (I think) as is my C-46 Hughes who threw a no-no for Boston Braves. What I was hoping for is the M116 showing him playing for Boston and not Rochester.
