Английская Википедия:Frank Bowerman
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox baseball biography Frank Eugene Bowerman (December 5, 1868 – November 30, 1948) was an American catcher and manager in Major League Baseball with the Baltimore Orioles, the Pittsburgh Pirates, the New York Giants, and the Boston Doves, as well as a player-manager for the Doves in his last season in professional baseball. While always playing in the shadows of Wilbert Robinson and Roger Bresnahan, he was a solid player who could play any position in the diamond, and he even pitched an inning for the Giants in Шаблон:Baseball year. He was also the first to catch Hall-of-Famer Christy Mathewson.
Bowerman was known for having a short fuse, as he repeatedly got into fights with players, umpires, and fans. In one such case in Шаблон:Baseball year, he punched a heckler in the face and was arrested.Шаблон:Cn He also started a fight with manager Fred Clarke while with the Pirates and gave him a black eye.
The Doves hired him as manager during the Шаблон:Baseball year season, but his fiery temper did not go well with his team, and he was relegated to player-only status after only 76 games.
In 1037 games over 15 seasons, Bowerman posted a .250 batting average (853-for-3410) with 345 runs, 13 home runs, 393 RBI and 81 stolen bases. He finished his career with a .965 fielding percentage.
Bowerman died in his birthplace of Romeo, Michigan five days shy of his 80th birthday.
