Thursday, June 22nd, 1905: Harry Lumley Sidelined for Season

Lumley sustained his season-ending injury during the Pittsburgh Pirates game yesterday at Washington Park III. He had to leave the game because he hurt himself while throwing the ball. Today the Brooklyn medical staff reported Lumley had a ruptured ulnar collateral ligament and would be absent from the lineup for at least 13 months.
