[edit] Biography

Born on November 30, 1870 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Frank Killen (Frank Bissell Killen) played for the Milwaukee Brewers, Washington Senators, Pittsburgh Pirates, Boston Beaneaters and Chicago Orphans over the course of his 10 year career. Killen broke into the bigs on August 27, 1891 with the Milwaukee Brewers, and put up a 1.68 ERA in 96.2 innings pitched in 1891, his rookie year.
