Cornelius "Con" Strouthers was a baseball manager in the late 1800's and early 1900's. From 1895-1896, he was the third manager of the Detroit Tigers during their time in the Western League before they became a major league team in 1901. In 1904 he was the manager of the Augusta Tourists of the South Atlantic League or "Sally League" when he invited Ty Cobb, who would go on to a hall of fame career with the Tigers, to join the club.
