Default What's up with the E98 Cy Young?

Posted By: barrysloate

Whenever there are players with similar last names, there is the chance for confusion. I think the T206 Doyle error was caused because there were two Doyles playing in New York at the same time. We can't assume that the workers who are designing and printing cards at the factory are avid baseball fans who know a Cy Young from an Irv Young. They might not have even followed baseball, so they could easily have made such an error.
