| College-educated and independently wealthy, Stahl played baseball for the love of
the game. A good fielder, he was generally an indifferent hitter, although he led
the AL in home runs (10) in 1910. He managed the Senators to two seventh-place finishes
in 1905 and 1906. On his second try at managing, his Red Sox won the 1912 World Championship,
but he was dismissed from a dissension-torn team halfway through the next season.
Some sources erroneously list him as being the brother of Chick Stahl.
