A tremendous fan favorite during his 7 years with Cincinnati (1906-12), John "Larry" McLean stood 6' 5". McLean is the tallest Catcher ever in Major League Baseball (MLB).
After a couple of good years with the New York Giants, McLean's MLB career came to a sudden end in the Spring of 1915 when he picked a fight with John McGraw and the Giants' scout Dick Kinsella. Six years later in a Boston speakeasy, McLean was shot by the bartender and died at age 39. OK, guys show us your "jolly McLean giant" cards, photos, memorabilia, etc. I'll start this show with some of my cards...... ![]() ![]() ![]() . ![]() ![]() ![]() TED Z |

The McLean is one of my favorite cards in the E98 set! I love the darkness of his jersey top.
Nice card Jimi! Glad to see others who appreciate E98s, especially the lower condition ones like I do! Best of luck with your building of your set. Tim Kindler |

Thanks, Tim! What are you building with your e98s? Just a McLean e98 all backs, or a master e98 set?
