Generally considered to be one of the top shortstops in Negro League history, Pop Lloyd enjoyed a 25-year career in which he regularly batted well over .300.
In a time when pitchers dominated the game, Lloyd found a way to score runs. With a great eye for the ball and fantastic bat control, he could drop in hits and bunt with precision. His play also translated to the basepaths and led to many stolen bases. Not only was he known to be the best at fielding his position during his era, but he was also a top run producer for his teams.
