Bartell, whose aggresive style of play and fiery attitude earned him the nickname "Rowdy Richard", was a competent shortstop with good hands and a strong throwing arm. A skillful hitter, he batted .300 or more six times with a career-high .320 in 1930. He started his career in the National League with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1927. After three season over .300 with Pittsburgh, he was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies in 1931. Bartell helped those perennial cellar dwellers finish in fourth place in the 1932 season, for the only first division finish by a Phillies team in a span of 32 seasons (1918-42). In 1933, he was elected to the first All-Star Game and again in 1937. Jump to: navigation, search This article refers to the American baseball league. ...
Traded to the New York Giants before the 1935 season, Bartell helped the Giants win two NL pennants (1936-37). He also played with the Chicago Cubs in 1939. In 1940, his first season in the American League, he played for the fifth place Detroit Tigers. A year later, he teamed up with second baseman Charlie Gehringer to give the Tigers an AL pennant. Bartell started 1941 with Detroit and returned to the Giants in the midseason for his last major league appearance.
