Jimmy Everett Marquee

b. July 4, 1908 · New York Lincoln Giants 1929, Newark Eagles 1936, 1940, New York Black Yankees 1943

Jimmy Everett appears in the surviving record four times across fourteen years: with the New York Lincoln Giants in 1929, the Newark Eagles in 1936 and 1940, and the New York Black Yankees in 1943, by which point he was listed in left field rather than as a pitcher.

Ten pitching appearances are scored, four of them complete games and one a shutout. As with many players of the period, the gaps in that record reflect which games were written up rather than which years he played.

Born in Jacksonville, Florida in 1908, Everett batted .231 in the seventeen games where he came to the plate. Everett was eighty-seven at his death, in May 1996.
