Schlei, whose name sounded the same as that of a bluff, popular, and controversial Spanish-American War admiral, was a pretty good defensive catcher who went to the Giants in the three-way trade that sent Roger Bresnahan to St. Louis.
Admiral Schlei is one of just 76 catchers who have served in the military. [See MILITARY CATCHERS.] George Schlei served in the U.S. Navy during the Spanish-American War as an Admiral in 1898-1899.
