Playing an even 1,000 Games for Philadelphia Jack Clements was known for three things; his surly demeanor, his squat frame and being one of the first Catchers to constantly wear a chest protector.  Clements was a decent hitter as five of his seasons would see him bat over .300 and three of which saw an On Base Percentage over .400.  His .394 Batting Average in 1895 remains the highest ever for a Catcher.  Even though it was the 1890’s Clements showed decent power with two seasons of 17 and 13 Home Runs in 1893 and 1895 respectively.
