November 27 1931 ), nicknamed "Black Jack," was an Americansecond baseman inMajor League Baseball . He made his professional debut in 1872 with theBrooklyn Atlantics at age 20, and he would later join theNew York Mutuals , theHartford Dark Blues , and the Boston Red Caps. In 1883 Burdock began the season as manager; but after beginning the season 30-24, he was replaced byfirst baseman John Morrill – who had also been his predecessor in the job – and the team went on to capture theNational League pennant.
