Harry Luff

Harry Luff (September 14, 1856 – October 11, 1916) was an American Major League Baseball player from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania who played for six teams in four different major leagues from 1875 to 1885. He played for the New Haven Elm Citys in the National Association; the Cincinnati Red Stockings and the Louisville Eclipse in the American Association; the Detroit Wolverines in the National League; and the Philadelphia Keystones and the Kansas City Cowboys in the Union Association. He also played on several minor league teams in various leagues. He played at every position except catcher.

His career was marred by arrests for stolen goods, the suspicious death of a girlfriend, a drunken hotel fight in which he assaulted a police officer and another drunken incident where he threatened a streetcar conductor with a knife. Provided by Wikipedia
