Jennings' career began in 1891 with the Louisville Colonels in the American Association. He starred as the shortstop of the Baltimore Orioles teams which dominated the National League in the mid-1890s, along with players such as John McGraw. In 1899, he enrolled in the Cornell Law School, though he never completed his degree. His playing career essentially ended in 1903, although his activity in the sport was far from over. While Jennings was a fine player, he is largely remembered for his managerial success, particularly with the Detroit Tigers, whom he managed from 1907 through 1920, guiding them to three consecutive American League pennants in 1907-08-09. After leaving the Tigers, Jennings became a coach under his old teammate McGraw with the New York Giants, and filled in as manager in 1924 and 1925 during absences by McGraw.
