Josh Devore

Joshua M. Devore (November 13, 1887 – October 6, 1954) was an American professional baseball player who played outfielder in the major leagues from 1908–1914.

He would play for the Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies, New York Giants, and Boston Braves.

In his prime, Devore was an expert bunter and baserunner who was adept at drawing walks, and he was an effective leadoff man for the Giants' pennant-winners of 1911 and 1912.

As a teenager, Devore played for the Meridian Ribboners of the Cotton States League, hitting poorly the two years he was there.

He joined the New York Giants in September, just in time to watch them lose a playoff game to the Chicago Cubs and finish second in the National League.
