Known as a glove-first catcher with the league's best arm, Billy Sullivan finished his career with 12.4 defensive WAR. Despite a subpar .213 average, he briefly managed the team in 1909.
Also born on this date, Moe Berg played 279 games for the White Sox. The shortstop-turned-catcher compiled a -0.2 WAR, but his strong arm caught nearly half of attempted base stealers.
