Missing Player Fred Worden 1914 Philadelphia Athletics
Here's a photo of Fred Worden, who pitched one game for the 1914 Philadelphia Athletics.
He is pictured in the 1917 Spalding Guide in the Hanover Raiders 1916 Team Photo of the Blue Ridge League, under the name Werden.
His name was frequently misspelled as Warden or Werden in papers of the time. I found clipping in the October 5, 1917 Gettysburg (PA) Times making reference to him marrying a local woman and having played several seasons for the Hanover Blue Ridge Club. He played 1917 with Frederick in the same league and semi-pro ball.
