Bob Caruthers: “The story of Bob Caruthers is one of peaking early before beginning a long, slow decline. He was one of the stalwarts of 19th century baseball, winning 40 games twice (1885 and 1889) and finishing off his nine-year career with a 218-99 record. He started 310 games and completed 298 of them. After his big league career was over, he played and managed in the minors. One of the least imposing umpires ever (he stood just 5-foot-7 and weighed 138 pounds), he became an AL umpire in 1902 and 1903. Apparently, he was not a particularly good umpire, so he was demoted to the minor leagues, slowly going downward in class till 1911, when he died at the age of 47.”
