High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Michael Joseph Donlin (May 30, 1878 September 24, 1933) was an American outfielder in Major League Baseball who played for the St. Louis Perfectos/ Cardinals (1899 1900), Baltimore Orioles (1901), Cincinnati Reds (1902 1904), New York Giants (1904 1908, 1911, 1914), Boston Rustlers (1911), and Pittsburgh Pirates (1912). Donlin was a flamboyant playboy, a sharp dresser and a notorious drinker. With his dashing looks and one who wasn't opposed to finding trouble, he was equally popular with women and men and was one of the most popular players in baseball for a short time at the peak of his career. He was also one of the finest hitters of the dead- ball era but his lifestyle off the field kept him from becoming one of the all-time greats.
