  • Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Altrock was one of the better pitchers in baseball for a brief period from 1904 to 1906 with the White Sox. He was instrumental in the White Sox World Series championship in 1906, going 20-13 with a 2.06 ERA in the regular season and 1-1 with a Series-best 1.00 ERA against the Chicago Cubs. An arm injury after 1906 ruined his career, but he hung on with the White Sox and Senators until 1924, though he pitched very little after 1908 and made sporadic pinch-hitting appearances after that, including one in 1933 at 56 years of age, against Rube Walberg of the Philadelphia Athletics (10/1//33). Altrock became a coach for the Senators in 1912 and remained on the staff until 1953. During that time, he was noted for his antics in the coaching box and teamed with Al Schacht, the "Clown Prince of Baseball," for a dozen years to perform comedy routines on baseball fields in the days before official mascots. Altrock was the last player to have played major league baseball in the 19th century to play in a game. He was the third oldest player to ever appear in Major League baseball game when he played his last season in 1933. Altrock died at age 88 in Washington, D.C.
