George Davis

George Davis was a professional baseball pitcher who played in the early 20th century, an era characterized by the transition from the deadball era to a more offensively driven game. Born in 1890, Davis began his Major League career on July 16, 1912, and concluded it on October 7, 1915. Over the course of his brief career, he compiled a win-loss record of 7-10 and posted an earned run average (ERA) of 4.48, reflecting the competitive nature of the league during his tenure. Davis was known for his ability to strike out batters, finishing his career with a total of 77 strikeouts. Despite not recording any saves throughout his time in the league, his contributions on the mound were significant in the context of his era, as he navigated a landscape dominated by pitchers who often relied on different styles and strategies compared to those of modern baseball. While his time in the spotlight was relatively short, Davis's role as a pitcher during this transformative period in baseball history adds to the rich tapestry of the sport's evolution.
