Lead
[edit]- The term English doesn't necessarily need to be wikilinked
- I think the lead could be expanded a little with more relevant career statistics
Early life
[edit]- Maybe wikilink baseball in this section since it is the first time the sport is mentioned in the prose?
Professional career
[edit]- "In 1871, the National Association became the first professional baseball league. Thake joined the league in 1872 as a left fielder for the Brooklyn Atlantics." - maybe both of these sentences can be merged together
Death
[edit]- "The New York Post reported that he was caught in fishing nets, while The New York Times reported that the current swept him away." - repetition of "reported"
- Perhaps wikilink baseball fields
- "On September 10, Thake's funeral was held at his mother's home. He was buried at Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn." - these two sentences could be merged together
Career statistics and reputation
[edit]- "Baseball historian Frank Russo writes," - perhaps add the book Russo mentions Thake in
