[edit] Biographical Information
Infielder Bill Stumpf was with the New York Highlanders / Yankees in 1912 and 1913. Although only 20 when he broke in, he was not one of the ten youngest players in the league, as there were eight 18-year-old players in 1912 and some 19-year-olds. Ray Keating on the 1912 Highlanders was 18 but there were six players younger than him in the league.
He is one of two major leaguers (through 2007) with the last name Stumpf, the other being George Stumpf.
