Biography

Born in Bradford, Pennsylvania on December 25, 1869, Jones was twenty years old when he entered the majors in 1889 with the Pittsburgh Alleghenys, playing for them one year before joining the Louisville Colonels (1892), Washington Senators (1892), Philadelphia Phillies (1894) and Detroit Tigers (1903). Jones always was a bad luck pitcher either due to injury or playing on a bad baseball team. His most productive season came in 1892, when he posted a 3.31 ERA in 16 combined starts for the Colonels and Senators, but finished with a negative record of 5–14. The remainder of the time, he jumped between the minors and majors for almost twenty years.

In a four-season career, Jones posted a 7–15 record with a 3.73 ERA in 26 appearances, including 18 complete games and one shutout, giving up 137 runs (54 unearned) on 199 hits and 77 walks while striking out 65 in Шаблон:Frac innings of work.

Death

Jones died in Woodville, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, at the age of 71.
