Baltimore Orioles - Doc Adkins



Doc Adkins was born in Troy Wisconsin on August 5th, 1872. He had a cup of coffee with the New York Highlanders in 1903. Appearing in 2 games one of which was as a starter.

A career minor leaguer and player scout. His most notable player was Ernie Shore who he referred to Oriole owner Jack Dunn.

Of the entire T205 set. This is one of my five most favourite cards. (I'm partial to the minor league cards as a whole)
