[edit] Biography

Jimmy Sheckard (Samuel James Tilden Sheckard) was born on November 23, 1878 in Upper Chanceford, Pennsylvania. He made his Major League debut on September 14, 1897 for the Brooklyn Bridegrooms. In 1898, his rookie year, he hit .277 with 4 home runs and 64 RBI. Sheckard played for the Brooklyn Bridegrooms, Baltimore Orioles, Brooklyn Superbas, Chicago Cubs, St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds over the course of his 17 year career.

There is some disagreement on what was Jimmy Sheckard's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1901, when he stole 35 bases, hit for a .354 average and knocked in 104 runs. However, others believe that it was 1899, when he stole 77 bases, hit for a .295 average and knocked in 75 runs.
