Jack Doscher from the Chronology

Apr 14, 1906 - Little-used Jack Doscher makes his only start of the year for Brooklyn‚ but loses to Boston‚ 1-0. Doscher is the first lefty to start a game for Brooklyn in 4 years. Used mostly for batting practice‚ Doscher will shortly jump the team in a salary squabble. The win goes to Vive Lindaman‚ making his first major league start. Vive better get used to the lack of support; he'll lose 23 games this year‚ eight by shutouts. No rookie will have it worse.

Jul 2, 1903 - Pitcher Jack Doscher‚ making his debut with the Chicago Cubs‚ is the first son of a former ML player to also play in the ML. Father Herm was a third baseman with Troy‚ Chicago‚ and Cleveland before the turn of the century. Jack loses today at Philadelphia‚ 7-2‚ and will end the season with the Brooklyn Superbas.
