He is "C.F. Hanlon" in the photograph, but a different name in the article. Can someone explain the contradiction?

  • "C. F." refers to Center Field, a fielding position at which Hanlon primarily played. It was not to denote the initials of one's name. Rothesay 15:31, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Federal League involvement

I edited the article slightly to include something I think is important in his involvement with baseball, that being his involvement in the failed Federal League. I didn't think an article this small needed footnotes/cites, but the article is here http://www.bioproj.sabr.org/bioproj.cfm?a=v&v=l&bid=923&pid=5784 if you think it's needed. As I said, though, it didn't seem necessary to include a footnote for this short of an article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DTF955 (talkcontribs) 12:41, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
