David Nemec states that he was "better at billiards than baseball" and speculates that he was left-handed based on how newspaper accounts describe the movement of his breaking pitches.
He was caught by Alex Gardner, who set a major league record by allowing 12 passed balls and also made six errors; the pitcher may have been partially at fault, as his delivery was described as wild and swift.

The team folded in August, and Trumbull moved on to play for Holyoke of the minor league Massachusetts State Association.
