Lefty pitcher Wyatt "Watty" Lee, a Virginia native, pitched for the Senators in 1901-1903, which made him a teammate of righty pitcher Al Orth (see George T.'s post #775 above) in 1902-1903. Not nearly as accomplished a pitcher as Orth, Lee's record with the Senators was 29 wins (incl. 4 shutouts) and 34 losses. The only pitching category Lee ever led the A.L. in was giving up the most homers (14) in 1901. However, Lee also played all of the outfield positions. His lifetime batting average is .242, and he hit all 4 of his homers in 1902. Lee's last year in MLB was 1905 with the Pittsburgh Pirates, where he played sparingly.
