• Card series: Pioneer Portraits II: 1875-1899
• City: Philadelphia
• Team: Quakers
• League: National League

Alexander Bennett Sanders (1865-1930) pitched for the Quakers, Athletics and Colonels over a 5 year career. His odd delivery left him facing 2nd base and vulnerable to the bunt. Nevertheless, Sanders went 80-70 with a 3.24 ERA. Perhaps his fielding limitations led to his yielding 2 runs despite hurling a no-hitter against the Orioles on 8/22/92 — the 1st no-no where the loser scored.

• Sanders joined the ill-fated Player’s League with Philadelphia in 1890
• As a rookie, nearly achieved a 2nd no-hitter, giving up a one-out single in the 9th
