Player Biography
Like an original Roy Hobbs, Elmer Flick reported to the Philadelphia Phillies in the spring of 1898 with a bat he had turned on a lathe himself. Described by sportswriter Francis Richter as “one of the most promising youngsters the Phillies had ever had,” Flick replaced injured Hall of Famer Sam Thompson in the outfield and remained in the majors for the next 13 seasons. In four full years with the Phillies, Flick hit .345. In nine seasons with the Cleveland Naps, the speedster led the American League in stolen bases twice, triples three times and retired with a .315 lifetime average.
