Jimmy was the first manager of the Boston Red Sox and piloted that team to win the first World Series in 1903.
Led by the greatest winning pitcher in the history of baseball, Cy Young, the Bosox beat
the NL champs, Pittsburgh Pirates, 5 games to 3. Jimmy, in his own right, was one of the NL's biggest stars and
highest paid player when he jumped to the infant American League in 1901 and earned an astonishing $18,000.
