You've got to be kidding me. I wrote a short 300 word biography on Rube Waddell with Connie Mack in a contest a few weeks ago. Just to find out it was supposed to be a fictional story so I had to dump it and write something else. Shibe Park now that is some baseball history. I love it, home of great teams, great rebuilds, and the great Cornelius McGillicuddy (Connie Mack's birth name). Great stuff @hourofhistory excellent post!

Thanks @cryptkeeper17 - Connie Mack is an incredible figure with a huge history that often creeps into hagiography and mythology. The longest serving manager in baseball history he started in 1901 and continued to 1950. How's that for a career?
