The 1941 Washington Senators team photo, featured in the 1942 Sporting News Baseball Record Book, captures the members of the team during a historical period for Major League Baseball. The Senators, a part of the American League, are shown in their uniform, prominently displaying the "W" emblem. The roster includes notable players: first row features Welaj, Lewis, Evans, Milan, Myer, and manager Harris, along with coaches Bluege and Bengough. In the second row, the lineup includes Masterson, Carrasquel, Zuber, Anderson, Hudson, Leonard, Vernon, Travis, Archie, Sundra, Case, Cramer, and Aderholt. This team played its home games at Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C. The year 1941 is significant as it was the final season for Hall of Famer and star player, Joe Cronin, before he stepped away from playing and transitioned into a managerial career.
