Jack Fournier

He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, St. Louis Cardinals, Brooklyn Robins, and Boston Braves from 1912 to 1927.

Rowland solved that problem in 1916, a year after Fournier had led the AL in slugging, by replacing him at first base with the marginal Jack Ness.

Fournier said he would quit the game rather than leave St. Louis, but he eventually ended his holdout and reported to the Dodgers.

He turned in a six-for-six performance on June 29 of that year, hit .351, though committing a league-high 21 errors.

He later scouted for the St. Louis Browns (1938–1942, 1944–1949), Chicago Cubs (1950–1957), Detroit Tigers (1960), and Cincinnati Reds (1961–1962).
