his only player card.

With very few Major League teams in the early days it was very difficult to make it to the Bigs.

In contrast there were many, many minor league teams and some players had long minor league careers, never making it to the Majors.

The opposite of today in regards to teams but still hard to make it.

It's amazing that he spent his whole career with one organization.
