Nashville's Outfield Artist: Julius "Doc" Wiseman

In a rare occurrence, the pennant-deciding game between Nashville and New Orleans on the last day of the 1908 season was halted in the middle of the seventh inning for a ceremony to honor Nashville’s most popular player: Doc Wiseman. He was awarded a gold pocket watch for eight years playing with the local team. It was inscribed with the following:

“Presented to Julius A. Wiseman for Efficient Service, Nashville Baseball Club, 1901-1908."

Wiseman was more than that, playing three more season to finish his baseball career in Nashville. In this podcast episode I tell about the impact he made on Nashville baseball fans. I hope you will listen to it!
