A right-hander, Jack Scott pitched a four-hit shutout in Game 3 of the 1922 World Series against the New York Yankees, and he and the Giants went on to win the championship. Scott started one game of the 1923 World Series against the Yankees as well.
He was a knuckleball pitcher and workhorse, leading the league in games pitched three times, including 50 appearances on the mound in 1926.
Scott started both ends of a doubleheader on June 19, 1927 for the Phillies, beating the Reds in the opener 3-1, dropping the nightcap 3-0. He threw complete games in each, allowing just four runs and one walk.
He finished his career with a record of 103-109.
Scott was a very good hitter as pitchers go. His 187 career hits included five home runs and four triples, with a batting average of .275.
List of Major League Baseball players with unidentified given names
Forty-one individuals who played professional baseball at the major league level lack identified given names. Identification of players remains difficult due to a lack of information; a Brooklyn, New York directory, for instance, lists more than 30 men that could be the professional player "Stoddard". Possible mistakes in reading box scores from the 19th century could have also led to players without given names: "Eland", for example, could be another player from the Baltimore Marylands roster whose name was simply misread. Four of the 41, McBride, Stafford, Sterling, and Sweigert, were local players added to the Philadelphia Athletics team by manager Bill Sharsig for Philadelphia's last game of the season against the Syracuse Stars on October 12, 1890. Sterling pitched five innings for the Athletics and conceded 12 runs. McBride, Philadelphia's center fielder, and Stafford, the team's right fielder, both failed to reach base, but left fielder Sweigert reached base on a walk and stole a base. Society for American Baseball Research writer Bill Carle "doubt[s] we will ever be able to identify them".
John A. "Jack" Scott (25 September 1875 – 7 September 1931) was an English professional footballer. He spent eleven years at Blackpool in the late 1890s and early 1900s, making over 300 Football League appearances for the club. He played as a defender. He also played for Albion Rovers and Sunderland.
Playing career
Scott signed for Blackpool prior to their second season in the Football League, 1898–99, making his debut in the opening game of the season, a 4–1 defeat at Glossop North End on 3 September. He was ever-present in each of Blackpool's 34 games, and scored four goals in the process.
Blackpool were not re-elected to the League after their sixteenth-placed finish in 1898–99, but when they returned to the competition in 1900–01, Scott made nineteen appearances.
In 1901–02, Scott was again ever-present. He scored one goal in his 34 appearances – the only goal of the game against Burslem Port Vale on 5 April.
Scott continued to be a mainstay of the team during 1902–03, missing just two games. He found the net on two occasions, both from the penalty spot.
Jack Scott (May 12, 1910 – December 30, 2000) was an Irish born union activist and member of the Communist Party of Canada. He authored numerous books on Canadian labour history and founded the Canada-China Friendship Association. He fought for Canada in World War II and was awarded the Croix de Guerre for gallantry under fire. Scott opposed allowing Canadian trade unions to be controlled by U.S.-based unions. He was expelled from the Communist Party because of his support of China during the Sino-Soviet split. Jack Scott became a founder of the Vancouver-based Progressive Workers Movement.
