Milwaukee Grays

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Milwaukee Grays of 1878 were a short-lived baseball team in the National League. They won 15 games, lost 45, and finished sixth and last in the league. Their home games were played at Eclipse Park II.

The Grays were managed by former major league right fielder Jack Chapman, whose nickname was "Death to Flying Things." Their best hitter was left fielder Abner Dalrymple, who led the team in batting average (.354), slugging percentage (.421), runs (52), and doubles (10). Their top pitcher was Sam Weaver, who was only 12-31 but had the fourth-best ERA in the league, a very low 1.95.
