Allan Russell spent the first 8 of his 11 MLB seasons with losing teams (Yankees & Red Sox) before good fortune came his way and he finished his career with a winner, the Washington Senators (hey, Washington was not always "first in war, first in peace, and last in the A.L.")!! Mostly a relief pitcher in the latter part of his career, Russell led the A.L. in saves with 9 in 1923 (my, how times have changed!), had a 5 - 1 record in relief with 8 saves in 1924, and made one relief appearance in the 1924 World Series (pitched 3 innings in game 3), which was won by the Senators.

Almost forgot about Jimmy (Lavender):
