Major League Baseball Players Who Died in 1890
While looking up at an Old Timers’ Day scoreboard which was listing deceased Yankee greats,
Hall of Fame Catcher Yogi Berra once quipped, "Boy, I hope I never see my name up there." The table below allows
you to "check the scoreboard" in a year by year format. Simply select a year and up comes a list of every Major League
player in history who died during any given year.

"If anybody talks about a dead guy during a broadcast, I'll sack 'em. I'm sick of
dead guys. Whenever I turn on baseball, all I hear about is dead guys. If I hear a name, I'm going to ask: 'Is he dead?' And if he is,
you're fired." - Fox Sports President David Hill in The Cultural Encyclopedia of Baseball (Jonathan Fraser Light, 2005) |
