Jack Nabors

Herman John Nabors (November 19, 1887 in Montevallo, Alabama – October 29, 1923 in Wilton, Alabama), was a professional baseball player who played pitcher in the Major Leagues from 1915-1917. He would play for the Philadelphia Athletics. From April 28 to September 28, 1916, Nabors lost 19 consecutive decisions, a major league record that has never been matched in a single season (though Cliff Curtis, several years previously, lost 23 straight decisions over 2 years, and Anthony Young once lost 27 straight decisions over the course of two seasons).
