John Dobbs

 

A well-traveled outfielder, John Dobbs started with the Cincinnati Reds in 1901 and hit .274, a solid batting average during baseball’s dead ball era. In July of 1902 he was sold to the Chicago Cubs and hit a career high .299 combined with both teams. John Dobbs played the last 2 and half seasons in Brooklyn with the Superbas (short for Super baseball players).
