Comments
 * a DAB link


 * Could replace some "he"s in the second paragraph of the lead for some "Thurman"s


 * After retirement, he worked as a major league scout and insurance agent until his death in 1953. 1993?


 * A Fair Use image would be nice.


 * ...he was a three-sport athlete, playing baseball, where he was a second baseman, basketball, and track and field. perhaps use parentheses ...he was a three-sport athlete, playing baseball, (where he was a second baseman)...


 * Just curious, where did you find the second reference? I tried searching for it on Google News and pqasb archiver but couldn't find it.


 * After playing in 97 games, finishing with an average of .390, Tucker played for the Oklahoma City Indians playing in 40 games. overuse of "playing"


 * ...the season ended, Chicago White Sox farm manager delink White Sox since it's linked earlier


 * Tucker finished the season with a batting average of .287 and six triples delink batting average


 * with a batting average of .288 and 20 doubles, both career highs. delink doubles


 * in mid-June, the Padres sold his contract to the Oklahoma City Indians of the Texas League. Caps please

Issues fixed. I'll look for a good fair use image. I've held off on that because I feel like there has to be a free image out there somewhere, but I've come up empty in my usual searches. Until I find one I might as well add one in. As for Ref #2, I had access to the Sporting News archives for a while and was able to save my results for a few, including Tucker. They're the ones that have all the personal life info for most players of the era, so I use it as often as I can with the remaining players i have copies for. Thanks for the review.
