Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Although he was supposed to begin his major league career in 1888 with Saint Louis as a replacement for Curt Welch, his contract was awarded to Des Moines after a dispute between the two clubs. With Cincinnati the next year, he was the American Association's top rookie and a star caliber performer for them for six years.<BR><BR>He suffered an appendicitis attack in 1895 and after the operation was never the same player.<BR><BR>He has Old Judge cards for both Des Moines and Cincinnati. <BR><BR><a href="http://www.baseball-reference.com/h/hollibu01.shtml" target=_new>http://www.baseball-reference.com/h/hollibu01.shtml</a>

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>I woke up this morning and realized that once again, when I went to baseball-reference.com I forgot to scroll down and see if there was more to his career. You'd think I would learn my lesson that many 19th century players pitched and played the field during their careers. Chalk up another one for the original dunderhead.<BR><BR>Jay
