    Bud Weiser “King of Beers” ©DiamondsintheDusk.com “It was the first time many of the fans ever saw Bud Weiser in uniform. Lots of them have admired it in a glass many a time, however. - May 31, 1917, The Wilkes-Barre Record on Weiser making his Wilkes-Barre debut More than just The King of Beers, Harry Budson “Bud” Weiser is known as the “Ty Cobb of the North Carolina League,” when he comes up to the National League’s Philadelphia Phillies in 1915 straight from the Class D league in the Tar Heel State. Weiser will play a full season with the Phil- lies in 1915 and a partial one in 1916. In 74 big league at bats, Weiser hits only .162 with 12 hits, including three doubles with nine RBIs and two stolen bases. Nine times in his 12 minor league seasons, the right-handed hitting outfielder will hit over .300, including a career-high .339 as a 32-year-old with the Binghamton Triplets in 1923. He finishes his minor league career with 1,231 hits and .307 batting average. In 1916, he leads the Eastern League in steals, totaling a career-high 55 for the first-place New London Planters. Twice he will capture individual batting titles, first in the North Carolina League (.333) in as a 23-year-old 1914 and then the New York State League (.375) in 1917. On three occasions he will “jump” his contract leaving his teams in the lurch and his impressive minor league career is interrupted by stints in outlaw or semipro leagues.
