[edit] Biography

Frank Dwyer had a long major league career by nineteenth century standards, pitching 12 years in the big leagues and winning 176 games. His best year was 1896 when he won 24 games and had an ERA of 3.15, good for fourth in the league.

Dwyer broke in at age 20 under manager Cap Anson on the 1888 Chicago White Stockings, and finished his major league career under manager Buck Ewing on the 1899 Cincinnati Reds, a team which also featured rookie Sam Crawford.

Dwyer's career a couple times was in jeopardy when he started slow - in 1891 he was 13-19 with the 1891 Cincinnati Kelly's Killers and ended up the rest of the season with the 1891 Milwaukee Brewers, going 6-4. The next season he started 2-8 with the 1892 St. Louis Browns and was released, but salvaged the season by going 19-10 with the Reds for the rest of the season, and was to stay with the Reds for the rest of his major league career.

In 1902 he was the manager for the 1902 Detroit Tigers, which finished seventh.

Dwyer was also a major league umpire at times from 1889 through 1904, both during and after his playing career.

Dwyer was the first of only two major leaguers to come from Hobart and William Smith Colleges.

There is some disagreement on what was Frank Dwyer's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1896, when he posted a 3.15 ERA, won 24 games and struck out 57 batters. However, others believe that it was 1892, when he posted a 2.95 ERA, won 22 games and struck out 63 batters.
