Fairbanks Morse was the team he played/ managed after he played with the Yankees. He was traded from New York to Boston in mid 1922 and was part of the reason that the current Major league line cutoff was enacted. After the 1922 season he went to Beloit to work for Fairbanks Morse and was a player/ manager for the team. He died in Beloit of a heart attack in 1944. There was an indirect association with Eau Claire which is probably what you mentioned in the previous post. I do have an original photo of him in Yankee uniform and multiple ball cards from the 20's.
