There is no listing of a Max Mickey on the Steelers all-time roster as a starter. Max Mickey was obtained by the Steelers in 1952 as a rookie out of Otterbein College in Westerville, Ohio. He was listed as a guard, but was also a kicker. He didn't make the cut in the end but had plenty of amazing stories to tell. He was my great uncle. Click on the link below for more information.
In 1914, Max Fiske played for the Chicago Chi-Feds. On Base Percentage (OBP) is considered by many to be a better measure of a great hitter than the Batting Average. It is calculated with the formula (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) / (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies). In 1914, Max Fiske had 68 at bats, 16 hits, 2 walks, and was hit by the pitch 0 times. Sacrifice flies weren't counted before 1954. That gives him an On Base Percentage of .257. Slugging Percentage (SLG) is a popular measure of a batter's power. It is calculated as (Total Bases) / (At Bats). Another way to look at it is (Singles + 2 x Doubles + 3 x Triples + 4 x Home Runs) / (At Bats). In 1914, Max Fiske had 68 at bats, and hit 15 singles, 1 double, 0 triples, and 0 home runs, for a .250 slugging percentage. Being able to get on base and to hit for power are two of the most important offensive skills in baseball, so the On Base Percentage and Slugging Percentage are often added together. On-base plus slugging (OPS) is a sabermetric baseball statistic. The best hitters in Major League Baseball can achieve an OPS of .900 or higher. In 1914, Max Fiske had a .257 On Base Percentage and a .250 Slugging Percentage for an OPS of .507. Runs Created (RC) is a baseball statistic invented by Bill James to estimate the number of runs a hitter contributes to his team. There are a number of formulas used to calculate it. One of the simplest is (On Base Percentage) × (Total Bases). In 1914, Max Fiske had a .257 On Base Percentage and 17 Total Bases for 4.37 Runs Created.
