On the occasion of my 158th birthday today, my wish is for the knowledgeable base ball researchers of @sabr to have a committee work diligently to help induct American Association players like myself into the @baseballhall. We deserve respect!

131 years ago, I, #ParisianBob, was a member of your Cincinnati #Reds.

In 64 PA over 13 games, and playing only OF, I went 14-48 with 15 BB, and 2 K’s. Good for a .469 OBP. And, I got released. I was 29! God damn Comiskey.

Another Bridegroom for the organization! We had plenty during my tenure with the ballclub. Welcome!

Word of advice: watch going to the bottle too often. A slippery slope to counteract those marital pressures.

@bballhist @michaeljmengel @HOFUtley I’m particularly pleased you comprehend my value unlike many other daft base ball cranks.

@McCormick_HOF When do you start the funding campaign?

@lajoie338 Hope you had a good drive, Nap. What’s the MPG on the ol’ Chalmers?

[Bob Caruthers @ParisianBob]

@Pete__Browning @TheSlidingBilly @TempleOfBall Thanks for thinking of me fellas. But, this was not something I ever did. I did lead the AA in wins in 1885 and 1889 with 40. And led in OBP and something called OPS/OPS+ in 1886. Plus, don’t forget about me being an absolute MVP in carousing.

Stirrups!

Next goal - complete every start for an entire season.

He did it!

Jordan Montgomery records his first career complete game!

On this day in 1904 Cardinals manager and player Kid Nichols struck out 17 Brooklyn batters in our 15 inning win. Was a pleasure playing with this great Cardinals team.

In honor of @TheVinScully we decided to release a brand new song written by our very own @ScottMcMinus5 and #PeterBuck about the @Dodgers legend. You can hear “The Voice of Baseball” here: https://t.co/LctNdEgqQs. #RIPVinScully #VinScully #dodgers

Damn! Why didn’t I think of this when I was a player OR an umpire for that matter?!

@Pete__Browning We all must make standards for ourselves to live up to.
