[edit] Biographical Information

Dan McGarvey was one of the replacement players in the famous game occasioned by the suspension of Ty Cobb for an altercation with a fan in 1912. McGarvey played left field and batted clean-up.

The SABR biography of Allan Travers says that McGarvey had played at Georgetown College (although it's not clear if that means Georgetown in D.C. or the college in Kentucky).
