Dan Brothers began his Hall of Fame Career in 1879. The earliest scorecard I have with him playing is 1881 when he played with Buffalo. So when I looked at this 1904 NY Giants scorecard in the last REA auction and saw Brothers penciled in I thought it could not be Dan Brothers. I looked it up and Dan Brothers retired from Baseball in 1896. ...But! He came back to pick up a pinch hit at bat during the Tuesday October 4th game for the 1904 NY Giants as they played the St. Louis Cardinals. This was a scorecard from that game! Iron Man McGinnity took the loss finishing the season 35-8. The giants committed 6 errors in the field leading to a 7-3 loss.
And I now own a scorecard from Dan Brothers final at bat.

I won the 1904 Giants program with Dan Brothers final at bat from REA ( Sorry Scott it was me not Peter) Say what you want but when Robert was running the Auctions, I don't think there is any chance in the world that he doesn’t identify the significance of the program in the auction description. If I was the consigner I would be upset. Not that it would have added a significant amount to final price but you never know. All it takes is 2 people who want the same scorecard...
