Some new faces for 1903, Part One
Not sure how I missed this, but Dave Roberts, he of "The Steal" fame, has been in the FL from the start, and will be suiting up for the 1903 Pittsburgh Pirates squad.
And then there's Bill Knowlton, who will enter the FL through this year's Rookie Draft. I scour the new entries each year and weed out the big names, in the course of which process I noticed Bill. He pitched in just one game in 1920 for the A's, going 5.2 innings and taking the loss. That's it, roll credits and up the lights.
Of course that sent me scurrying off for a surf to try and find out more info on him. But I got bupkis. Zero, zilch, nada. If anyone can unearth more on the Bill Knowlton story that would be awesome.
