Here's a nice team picture of the 1895 St. Louis Browns that I thought you might like. The 1895 Browns were one of those forgettable and rather terrible Browns clubs of the second half of the 1890s. They did have Roger Connor and Ted Breitenstein but they were also playing guys like Bones Ely and Tom Brown. They had three players who had an OPS+ of -100 and lost 92 games. It was one of those seasons where things got so bad that Chris Von der Ahe felt it necessary to take over managing duties, although, to give him his due, he did go 1-0 as the skipper.
