We’re going way back, back, back for this week’s Vintage Seattle Player O The Week — all the way back to 1910. Straight from the Northwestern League comes Pennington of the Seattle ballclub. The card is not in the best shape, but we can still make out the words “marvelous blend” (it is lacking the verbiage of
Spencer’s card). Give it a click. Until the Mariners start producing this year, we’re going to have to keep going back nearly a century.
