[edit] Biographical Information

Tug Arundel came to the majors before he turned 20, and played four seasons in the big leagues. In the minors he played for teams mostly in the Midwest and the South.

Tug played for Toledo in 1884 in the year that Fleet Walker and Welday Walker were on the team. With the 1888 Washington Nationals, Tug was the same age as teammate Dummy Hoy and a year older than catcher Connie Mack.

He is buried at St. Joseph Cemetery in Auburn, NY.

Harry Arundel was a contemporary but apparently not a relative.
