Have you read any Jacksonville newspapers from 1880 to 1920 at the library or via Interlibrary Loan? I would think the city had quite a few daily papers that covered baseball during that time period. The Jacksonville historical society can probably help you too."He's tougher than a railroad sandwich."

http://ibistro.dos.state.fl.us/uhtbi...lle%20baseballA lot of people say this honor validates my career, but I didn't work hard for validation. I didn't play the game right because I saw a reward at the end of the tunnel. I played it right because that's what you're supposed to do, play it right and with respect. If this validates anything, it's that learning how to bunt and hit and run and turning two is more important than knowing where to find the little red light at the dug out camera. - Ryne Sandberg
