I wasn't familiar with Sanders, but he is on the list of 1880s pitchers who were also part time outfielders. His primary position should be pitcher, though. He was the 2nd and 3rd starter for teams based in Philadelphia (all three leagues) from 1888-1891, and for Louisville in 1892, played a little outfield for all of them, but was more of a fourth outfielder than someone they put in the lineup every day.
