MPD Baseball Team

an exciting discovery!

We have had this photograph in our collection for many years but have not known the names of these members of the Minneapolis Police Baseball Team (circa 1914).

Recently, we were able to identify these players and would like to share this information with you.

The players are as follows:

Top row from right to left, Captain Getchell, Manager; C.L. Glarum, Pitcher; O.C. Martinson, Centerfield; J.J. Finn, Shortstop; J.J. Cook, Third Base; G.A. Hammerod, Left Field; S. Johnson, Manager. Bottom row: “Spike” Anderson, Second Base; A.C. Jenson, Centerfield; L. Larson, Right Field; H. McGraw, First Base.
