BOBBY BYRNE
"Robert Byrne, the Pirates' valuable young third baseman, entered into professional base ball in 1904 with the Fort Scott team. After varied experience with other minor teams, he went to St. Louis and from there to Pittsburgh.
In the latter city, he developed into one of the hardest-hitting infielders in the National League. In 1910, he tied with the mighty Wagner in hits, 178, and led the league in two-baggers, of which he secured 43."

HOWIE CAMNITZ
"Howard Camnitz, one of Pittsburgh's star twirlers, first played ball in the Cotton States League in 1902. In 1904 he signed with Pittsburgh, but spent 1905 and 1906 getting valuable seasoning with the Toledo club of the American Association.
In 1907, his first full season with the Pirates, he won 13 games out of 21, and in 1908, 16 out of 25. In 1909, when Pittsburgh won the National League pennant, he contributed 25 victories out of 31 games. In percentage, .806, he tied Mathewson for the leadership of National League pitchers."

FRED CLARKE
"Under Fred Clarke, as captain and manager, the Pittsburgh team won the National Championship in 1901, 1902 and 1903, and in 1909 annexed both the National and World's Championships.
Clarke's record as a player is also a fine one. Four times in the last ten years he led the league's left fielders, twice with the high mark of .987. On August 10, 1910, he made four outfield assists in one game, a league record."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
JOHN FLYNN
"John Flynn, who covered first for the Pirates during most of the 1910 campaign, first played professionally for Toronto. During 1908 and 1909 he was with Milwaukee and St. Paul respectively. He is a versatile player, having worked at third and in the outfield for Milwaukee.
The records show a steady improvement in his hitting, which is valuable to his team because he often connects with the ball when men are on the bases."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
GEORGE GIBSON
"George Gibson, the Pittsburghs' reliable backstop, is the owner of a catcher's record that is unique in the history of the game. In 1909 he caught 150 games, of which 140 were consecutive, and his work is so good that his percentage was led the league's catchers for that year. In three years he has accepted 2,246 chances, making 1,895 put outs and 531 assists.
On June 21, 1910, he made four hits in five times at bat."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
TOMMY LEACH
"Tommy Leach, the Pittsburgh outfielder, became a Pirate in 1909. Until then he put in most of his time at third, but occasionally helped in the outfield. In 1909 and 1910 he played regularly in the outer garden.
Not only has be been of great value by his services in the field, but his heavy batting has been a factor in Pittsburgh's splendid record. In the three years ending in 1910 he made 447 hits for 627 bases and scored 302 runs."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
SAM LEEVER
"Sam Leever, the Pirates' veteran twirler, has some fine records to his credit. In 1901, 1902 and 1903, when the Pittsburghs won the National League pennant, his percentages of victories were .737, .696 and .781. This last figure led the league in 1903, and in 1905 he was again first with .800. In 1909 he pitched few full games, but got a figure of .889."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
LEFTY LEIFIELD
"Lefty Leifield, one of Pittsburgh's standouts on the pitching staff, after playing in different minor leagues made his first important success in organized base ball with the Des Moines team of the Western League. In 1904 he won 19 games for them out of 33, and in 1905 helped them get the local pennant with 23 victories out of 31 games.
With the Pittsburghs, for whom he first pitched in 1906, he has finished every season on the right side of the ledger. In 1906 he won 18 games out of 31, and in 1907, 20 of 36."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
DOTS MILLER
"John B. Miller, the young second baseman of the Pittsburgh club, played his first professional ball with the Easton club of the outlaw Atlantic League in 1908. Late in that summer he signed with the Pirates but was loaned for the balance of the season to the McKeesport club of the Ohio-Pennsylvania League.
His first season in major league company was a most successful one for a young player. His batting and fielding both made him valuable to the team in capturing the 1909 pennant."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
DEACON PHILLIPPE
"Deacon Charles Phillippe is one of the most reliable members of the Pittsburgh pitching staff. He came to the Pirates in 1900, having been brought over from Louisville with Fred Clarke and other stars by president Dreyfuss. In 1901, 1902 and 1903 he was one of the corps of twirlers who helped Clarke land the Pirates at the head of the National League.
He has been a steady player in all senses of the word and his great control may be judged by the fact that in 1909 and 1910, while taking part in 53 games, he only gave up 23 bases on balls."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
KIRBY WHITE
"Kirb White, the big right-handed pitcher of the Pittsburgh Nationals, was born in Ohio and made his entry into organized base ball in 1907 with the Lancaster team of the Ohio State League. In 1908 he helped the Lancasters win the Ohio pennant with the fine record of 28 wins out of 48 games. He struck out 262 men during the season, while winning an eighteen-inning game when he only gave up one base on balls, and taking another game when not one hit was made off him.
His services were secured by the Chicago Cubs, who let him go to the Boston Nationals, who in turn traded him to Pittsburgh."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
OWEN WILSON
"J. Owen Wilson, now one of the Pirates' reliable guardians of the outer line of defense, while with Des Moines in 1907 was seen by Manager Clarke. Clarke immediately caused his release to be secured by Pittsburgh, and time has verified the correctness of his judgment.
Each season the tall outfielder has improved in batting and fielding. In 1910 his 148 hits were good for a total of 200 bases."
