I looked him up......in real life his range factor in 1884 was over a full chance per game more than the second place shortstop.....that is VERY impressive....however, his real life fielding percentage was no where near .951......a .951 fielding percentage in 1884 for a shortstop was about as possible as someone hitting 200 home runs today (just pulled that out my heinie; I have no math to support the claim).....
