Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox baseball biography Thomas John "Dude" Esterbrook (June 20, 1857 – April 30, 1901) was an American Major League Baseball player from Staten Island, New York who played the majority of his games at third base, but did play many games at first base. Esterbrook played for seven different teams during his 11-year career, and had his biggest success in Шаблон:Baseball year, while playing for the New York Metropolitans, when he batted .314, and was among the leaders in many other batting categories.[1]

In Шаблон:Baseball year, Esterbrook was named the manager, or "Captain" as it was known then, of the Louisville Colonels. After only ten games, and only two wins, the team owner determined that due to the team's record and his manager's confrontational behavior, Esterbrook would be fired and replaced by Jimmy Wolf.[2]

Esterbrook died at the age of 43 when he leaped from a train, in Middletown, New York, that was transporting him to a mental hospital.[3] He is buried at Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn, New York.[4]
