Thank you for the wonderful production in respect of the Carl Mays image.
Jeff Pfeffer ended his Major League career with the 1924 Pittsburgh Pirates, image attached.
He started the yaer with the Cardinals going 4-5 with a 5.31 ERA. With the Pirates he was 5-3 with a 3.07 ERA.
His career record was 158-112 with an ERA of 2.77. Twice a more than 20 game winner and twice a 19 game winner.
Started his career with the 1911 St. Louis Browns appearing in just 2 games. Reappeared with the Dodgers in 1913, where he won the majority of his games, 113. Stayed with Brooklyn until 1921 when he later moved to the Cardinals. Came to prominence in 1914 when he led Brooklyn in wins, as he did in the following 2 years, amassing 67 wins over that 3 year period. His only League leading performances was in hitting batsmen in 1916 and 1917, and was involved in a scary incident in this capacity during a pre-season 1920 encounter with the Yankees, Chick Fewster being on the receiving end.
