Baseball HOFers possible question?

[mrmopar]

Went back and read both of the linked threads. Some great information there for the curious, like me, who want to know but will never be a player for anything rare that those guys mentioned.

I recall as a kid being fascinated about the story describing the death of Ed Delahanty. I don't recall exactly where I saw it at that time, could have even been an old scholastic book about old time baseball players, but there was that detail of the story of him being put off a train and disappearing into the night on a bridge crossing the Niagra, never to be seen alive again.

Having died young and unexpectedly in 1903, I never researched it but would have thought his name would have come up at some point, but nada in either thread. Apparently he was available enough to avoid being on the top of the list.
