Photo Located Jack Leary 1880 Boston 1881 Detroit 1882 Pittsburgh 1883 Louisville/Baltimore 1884 Alt
I am excited to share an image of my holy grail of missing players, the well-travelled Jack Leary. I became fascinated by him while writing my Union Association book.
I found this nice article about the Champion 1885 Augusta, Georgia team in the March 15, 1908 Augusta Chronicle. Matt Kilroy starred for them before joining Baltimore in 1886. Leary played third base for the club and is mistakenly listed as O'Leary, but I've got numerous notes confirming that Jack Leary played for Augusta in 1885.
