Neat card!

Interesting fact :

On August 11, 1907 in a game against the Boston Doves, Karger was given credit for a seven inning perfect game.

Karger’s name graced the list of no-hitter pitchers for 84 years until September 1991, when the Committee for Statistical Accuracy altered the definition of a no-hitter to include only those games that last at least nine innings and end with no hits. An estimated 36 abbreviated no-hitters were removed from the ranks, including Karger’s. Nonetheless, for one day in 1907, Karger was perfect, even if it was for only 21 outs.
