  • William Gibson

    Billy —

    Pitcher #64 (Bobby Wallace) according to Baseball Reference, in fact, pitched for the Cleveland Spiders from 1894 – 1896, as well as for the St. Louis Browns in 1902. His record with the Spiders was 24 – 22. His ERA was 3.89 over 400 innings.

    Did I mis-read the data?

    Thanks,
    Will

    Yes, the data is compiled incorrectly. This listing only includes data from the years 1900 to the present.
