Hi folks.
Everytime I try to import historical players with a ' in the last name, like O'Brien or O'Doul it doesnt work. Using baseball reference.com i try to import Lefty O'Doul. its o'doule01. but that doesnt work. What can I do to fix this?

Cub

Spritz DB I use 1 that has real debut all players (Negro/Nippon League)
OOTP Databases

you can add it to you existing league, but i have had issues switching databases for my historical league that doesn't have a draft.
