Mr. Ward's Perfect Game
 
It's rare for a NYT article to include an old baseball card. I thought Net54 readers would enjoy this piece. Hope it can be read. Peace.

I just saw this on the NYT as well. Good timing with the perfect game pitched this week.

Great article! I have always believed that Ward was the most underrated 19th century star and Harry Wright the most overrated.

Thanks for sharing! I remember him from Ken Burns' series as well I think the first episode as he helped organize the failed Players League.

Big fan of John M. Ward. This was the first N172 player / pose run I completed.
