Biography

Horace Fenner, born in 1897, was a professional baseball player who made a brief appearance in Major League Baseball during the 1921 season. He played as a position player for a short stint, participating in two games from September 9 to September 24 of that year. Fenner's major league career was fleeting, as he finished with a batting average of 0.0, recording no hits, home runs, or RBIs, and did not attempt any stolen bases. Although his professional career in the majors was limited, Fenner's time in baseball coincided with a transformative period in the sport, as the early 1920s were marked by the emergence of the live-ball era. This era saw a shift in playing styles, with a greater emphasis on hitting and power. While Fenner did not leave a lasting statistical impact, his participation in the major leagues remains a testament to the numerous players who aspired to compete at the highest level during this dynamic time in baseball history.
