Stutz is pictured here in a Philadelphia Athletics uniform. This picture was taken in 1924 when Stutz was hired by Connie Mack to serve as a base coach and on-field entertainer for the Athletics.[1] The moustache and beard he wore in the photograph were props he used in his on-field capering. In addition to "Kid," his other nickname was "Satan,"[2] and no one knows why.

Stutz was born and died in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
