Juice Latham
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George Warren "Juice" Latham (September 16, 1852 - May 26, 1914) was a 19th century Major League Baseball First baseman and manager for five different teams in five seasons, while managing two of them.[1]
After the National Association disbanded, the New Haven Elm Citys refused to join the new National League, so many of their players left and joined other teams. Juice left and then played for the London Tecumsehs in London, Ontario, Canada during the 1876 season.
Also nicknamed "Jumbo", he is credited as the first major league player from Utica, New York[2], and it is there that he died at the age of 61.
