Kid Gleason Stats

Kid Gleason was born on Friday, October 26, 1866, in Camden, New Jersey. Gleason was 21 years old when he broke into the big leagues on April 20, 1888, with the Philadelphia Phillies. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Kid Gleason baseball stats page.

"With the assistance of a good drop ball, at that time a popular manner in which to baffle the batters, he (Kid Gleason) could stand such venerable olf chaps as 'Pop' Anson and 'Dan' Brouthers on their heads." - Evening Telegram (Undated Clipping in the Hall of Fame Library)
