[edit] Biographical Information

Art Brouthers got 144 at-bats during the first half of the 1906 season with the Philadelphia Athletics managed by Connie Mack, a team which finished 78-67. He was mostly a third baseman. The third base job that year was primarily filled by 20-year-old John Knight, who hit .194 but had slightly better fielding numbers than did Brouthers. Knight had been the regular shortstop in 1905 for the team at age 19.

Art played for Toledo in 1904 and spent part of 1906 at New Orleans.
