- Louis Browns of the National League, hitting for a .286 average (2-for-7) in two games.
- Out of the majors for six full seasons, he later achieved the rare distinction of being the first player in major league history to play for four different teams in a season.Huelsman reached the American League in 1904, appearing in three games with the Chicago White Sox before moving to the Detroit Tigers, the White Sox again, the new St.
- Louis Browns, and the Washington Senators.
- He hit .245 (97-for-396) in 112 games that season, including two home runs and 35 RBI. In January 1905, the Boston Americans obtained outfielder George Stone from the Senators.
- Then, the Browns reclaimed Huelsman from Washington, where he had been on loan, and sent him along with outfielder Jesse Burkett to Boston in exchange for Stone.
- Boston then sent Huelsman back to Washington in payment for Stone.
- For Huelsman, it was his eight transaction in less of a year.
- Nevertheless, he enjoyed a good season with the Senators, hitting .271 with three home runs and 62 RBI in 121 games, including 48 runs, 28 doubles, eight triples, and 11 stolen bases – all career-numbers, but he was sent down in 1906, and was never called back up.
- In a three-season career, Huelsman was a .258 hitter with five home runs and 97 RBI in 235 games. Following his Major League Baseball career, Huelsman became a minor league star, compiling a .342 career average over nearly 20 years, including five batting titles, six RBI titles, and two Triple Crowns between 1911 and 1913, missing a third title in 1912 by a .002 in batting average.Huelsman died in Affton, Missouri, just four days after his 85th birthday.
