Bill Harbridge

William Arthur "Bill" Harbridge (March 29, 1855 – March 17, 1924), also known as "Yaller Bill", was a Major League Baseball player who split his playing time between catcher and in the outfield for five different teams during his nine-season career that lasted from 1875 through 1884.

He began his career in the last year of the National Association and finished with the Union Association in its only year of existence.

On May 6, 1876, Bill is credited as becoming the first left-handed catcher in major league baseball history. He died in his hometown of Philadelphia at the age of 68, and was interred at Fernwood Cemetery in Fernwood, Pennsylvania.
