Jimmy Burke (baseball)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James Timothy Burke (born October 12, 1874 - died March 26, 1942) was a Major League infielder with the Cleveland Spiders, St. Louis Perfectos, Milwaukee Brewers, Chicago White Stockings, Pittsburgh Pirates, and St. Louis Cardinals, with his best offensive season coming in 1905. He was named player-manager of the Cardinals in the middle of the 1905 season, but he was replaced by Stanley Robison, and it would be thirteen years before his old club, the St. Louis Browns hired him as a manager.
