Default Cousin Mort

Moritz Herman "Dutch" Flohr was a cousin of mine who pitched for the 1934 Phil A's after being signed off the Duke University campus by Connie Mack.

Called "Mort" by the family, he pitched in 14 games, started 3 and had an 0-2 record. Wildness & arm trouble contributed to 1934 being his only ML season.

Mort was never on a baseball card but there are 2 Burke PC's of him & I also own one of the 8 x 11 original portrait photos, along w/ several signed index cards that he did for me a couple of yrs before he passed in 1999.
