Player Biography
“Roger is a fighter. He was a fighter when a pupil of (John) McGraw’s, and he has instilled this fighting spirit into his team,” Fred Lieb wrote in Baseball Magazine. Roger Bresnahan broke in with the Washington Senators in 1897, hurling a shutout in his debut. As a catcher and centerfielder, the versatile Bresnahan was a key component of the New York Giants pennant winners in 1904 and 1905. Later, Bresnahan served as a player-manager for the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs. In 1907, he was the first to don catcher’s shin guards helping to revolutionize the position.
