Ross Reynolds

Ross Ernest Reynolds (August 20, 1887 – June 23, 1970), nicknamed "Doc", was a right-handed American baseball pitcher.

Known for his ability to throw a spitball with control, he appeared in 30 games, nine as a starter, and compiled a 5–4 win–loss record and a 2.62 earned run average.

Reynolds also played in the minor leagues for a team in Minneapolis, Kansas (1912) and for the Topeka Kaws (1912–1913), the Louisville Colonels (1915), and the Denver Bears.

[1] Reynold began his professional baseball career in 1912 at age 25, playing for the Minneapolis Minnies in the Central Kansas League.

"[10] Detroit sports writer E. A. Batchelor had this to say about Reynolds: "He is well over six feet, broad-shouldered and deep chested and has one of those square jaws which denotes courage under fire.

Reynolds appeared in 26 games for the Tigers in 1914, seven as a starter, compiling a 5–3 record with a 2.08 earned run average (ERA).

[7] on August 25, 1914, Reynolds allowed only five hits and won a pitching duel with Walter Johnson, as the Tigers defeated the Washington Senators, 2–1.

Reynolds scored the winning run after Johnson misplayed his bunt, allowing it to roll through his legs.

[7][4] On August 9, 1915, Reynolds was fined and suspended for the remainder of the season for failing to observe the club's training rules.
