Wid Conroy
[edit] Biography
Wid Conroy (William Edward Conroy) was born on April 5, 1877 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He made his Major League debut on April 25, 1901 for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 1901, his rookie year, he hit .256 with 5 home runs and 64 RBI. Conroy played for the Milwaukee Brewers, Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Highlanders and Washington Senators over the course of his 11 year career.
There is some disagreement on what was Wid Conroy's most productive season. Some believe that it was 1906, when he stole 32 bases and knocked in 54 runs. However, others believe that it was 1907, when he stole 41 bases and knocked in 51 runs.
