Bobby WALLACE (HOF)

Biography

Ty Cobb says: “Bobby Wallace, for several seasons the shortstop of the St. Louis Browns, has much of my admiration and respect for his ability. In the first place, Wallace has been working with bad legs for several seasons, but he has been doing as much damage as any shortstop with whole legs, and a team around him of the caliber of the St. Louis Browns, could be expected to do. He is very brainy, and the one man playing shortstop who absolutely knows how to cover the position with the greatest effect all the time. His brains kept him in the game for a long time after he became badly worn and frayed physically.”
