A University of Florida infielder in 1919 when the Giants trained at Gainesville, Richbourg signed with New York but never played for them. He hit over .300 four consecutive seasons as a Braves regular (1927-30). On May 14, 1927 he set a National League record by playing 18 innings in right field without a fielding chance. He later spent four years managing Nashville (Southern Association). (NLM)
