Frank Boyd

This stub is about a baseball player, but does not satisfy any version of general notability or biographical notability. The only references are databases. The special notability guideline for baseball has been removed, so that general notability is required but lacking. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:16, 17 June 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep per Muboshgu's sources plus here is another source that also has its own reference list. Plus he has an extensive bio in Nemec's The Rank and File of 19th Century Major League Baseball. The old NSPORT may be deprecated, but virtually all Major League players, especially beyond 1890 or so, meet GNG. Rlendog (talk) 19:06, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per the nice work done by User:Muboshgu and User:Rlendog above. -- A. B. (talk • contribs • global count) 15:42, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
