One of my favorites
Hubbard "Hub" Northen - Outfielder
Led Houston to the Texas League Championship in 1910 with a .311 BA and a team leading 160 hits, 7 triples, and 6 HR. Minors, 15 seasons, .270 BA, 42 HR - Managed 4 seasons Majors (SLB, CIN, BRO) 3 seasons (162 games), .272 BA, 3 HR  Highlights: October 9, 1910, During the first game of a double header, Hub Northen “fell all over himself” trying to field a fly ball hit by Nap Lajoie that ended up being a triple. Lajoie got seven more base hits during the twinbill, all of them bunts. This "enabled" Lajoie to overtake Ty Cobb for the season’s batting title. On September 16, 1912, Casey Stengel made his first major league appearance in the place of Hub, who was sick that day. Stengel got four hits and a walk that day. Northen was released at the end of the season, his last in the big leagues. Northen is also in the T207 set.
