FRANK BAKER
"Frank Baker, the tall and hard hitting third baseman of the champion Athletics, is a native of Maryland. After playing with semi-professional teams he had a short trial with the Baltimores, and in 1907 and 1908 covered third for the Reading club of the Tri-State League. His work with the latter was so brilliant that Connie Mack got his services.
With the Athletics he has not fallen down in batting like so many young players do when they get into the major leagues."

JACK BARRY
"John J. Barry, the fast young shortstop of the Philadelphia Athletics, is a native of Meriden, Connecticut. Barry had been doing fine work in the infield of the Holy Cross College team. In the fall of 1907 Connie Mack went to Meriden himself and secured his services.
In 1908 Barry sat on the Athletics' bench most of the season, but once he got the chance to play at short regularly, he and Collins soon made their part of the diamond invulnerable. Their fast work in 1909 and 1910 indicates a long and brilliant future for these brilliant young players."

CHIEF BENDER
Charles Albert Bender, the famous Indian pitcher of the Philadelphia Athletics, learned base ball at Carlisle. In 1903 he was signed by the Athletics. His pitching for them has steadily improved, and in 1910 he led the twirlers of the American League.
In the 250 innings he worked he allowed 182 hits and 83 runs, and struck out 155 men. He contributed timely hits in some of his games, batting .269 for the season."

EDDIE COLLINS
"Eddie Collins, second baseman of the Champion Athletics, played a fast game at short on the Columbia University team a few years ago, but in his first year with the Athletics he did nothing remarkable. The astute Mack tried him at second, and it was soon seen that a new base ball star had risen.
In 1908 Collins stole only eight bases, in 1909 he stole 67, and 81 in 1910. In both 1909 and 1910 he led all the second basemen, besides hitting the ball hard. In the World's Championship Series in 1910 his fielding, batting and stealing fairly dazzled the Cubs."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
TOPSY HARTSEL
"Topsy Hartsel, the Champion Athletics' utility outfielder, has been on their roster since 1902. Hartsel is short in stature, but solidly built, and in some years has walloped the ball hard.
In 1900 with Indianapolis, he batted .300, in 1901 with the Cubs his figure reached .339 and in 1903 he hit .301 for the Athletics.
He only played in the fifth game of the World's Championship Series of 1910 and his batting, baserunning and fielding helped the Athletics to win that decisive contest."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
HARRY KRAUSE
"Harry Krause, the Philadelphia Athletics' young southpaw, made his base ball debut with the San Jose team in 1907. Connie Mack signed him and sent him to the Harrisburg team of the Tri-State League for seasoning. The young pitcher led that league in 1908, and in 1909, given a chance with the Athletics, made a phenomenal record. He won the first ten games he pitched, only five runs being made off him the whole ten games.
In 1910 ill health and a bad arm prevented his doing much, but he is expected to again cut a wide swath in 1911."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
PADDY LIVINGSTON
"Paddy Livingston, one of the regular trio who do the catching for the Philadelphia Athletics, is a native of Ohio and got his start in Kent, in that state. From Kent he graduated to Wheeling and in 1906 made his first appearance in the majors with Cincinnati. In 1907 and 1908 he caught the majority of the games of the Indianapolis team of the American Association and was regarded as the best backstop in that organization.
Connie Mack secured his services for the Athletics, and has seen no reason to regret his purchase."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
BRIS LORD
"Bris Lord, whom the Philadelphia Americans got from Cleveland late in the season of 1910, had once played with the Athletics, but had been released to New Orleans. In 1908 he made such a record at bat that he was purchased by Cleveland.
Playing in 67 games for Cleveland in 1909, he made only one error in 124 chances. In 1910 he made 21 two-baggers and 18 three-baggers."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
DANNY MURPHY
"Danny Murphy, outfielder of the Philadelphia Athletics, has been playing professional ball for a long time, having commenced when he was only eighteen, and is still going strong. He has been playing with the Athletics since 1902, playing second base till 1908, and doing it well, but he had to make way for the rapidly rising Collins, and to keep his big bat in the lineup he was shifted to the outfield.
Danny kept right on fielding well and slugging when he was at bat, having 84 two-baggers, 39 three-baggers and 16 home runs in the last three years."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
RUBE OLDRING
"Rube Oldring, the Athletics' slugging outfielder, got into the Southern Association with the Montgomery team, after having played with semi-professional clubs around New York. In Montgomery he showed such major league form that the Athletics bought his release.
1910 was his best year with them. He batted safely 168 times and scored 79 runs. Rube hit for the circuit four times, 14 times for three bases and 27 times to the half-way station."
-1911 American Tobacco Company Set T205
IRA THOMAS
"Ira Thomas, one of the Philadelphia Athletics' regular catchers, got into professional base ball with the Hartfords of the Connecticut League in 1902. Afterwards he worked behind the bat for Newark and Providence, and in 1906 and 1907 for the New York Highlanders.
In 1908 he caught 40 for the Detroits and in 1909 entered on his present agreement with the Athletics. His work for them has been of a high order. Examples of it are his throwing out Ty Cobb five times out of six in the last Detroit-Philadelphia series of 1910, and his mastery of the pitching in the World's Championship Series with the Cubs."
