Biography

The short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: This thirty-three year old go-getter has just bought the Red Sox! He’s been looking to get into the game for a few years and counts many important ball players and executives among his friends. It is said that Ty Cobb first put the idea in his craw a few years ago and since then he’s been looking for the right oportunity. It finally showed when friend Eddie Collins approached him with the idea of buying the Boston franchise. Local fans will agree that the club needs a new direction. Last season the team lost 111 games and owner Robert Quinn finally decided to throw in the towel. Maybe Yawkey’s energy and money can turn the team into a winner for Boston.
