Baseball Historian Biography

Jesse Stovall started and completed 6 games with Cleveland and had a very fine 5-1 record with a stingy 2.05 earned run average in his rookie year at age 27. Traded to the Detroit Tigers in January 1904 Jesse Stovall fell to a 3-13 record in 17 starts, plus 5 relief appearances, and had a 4.42 ERA for a Detroit team that finished with a lousy 62-90 record. It was the last year for Jesse Stovall in the majors. His younger brother, George, played first base in 1904 with Jesse. George Stovall played with Cleveland until 1911 and then played 4 years with other teams.
