His performance that afternoon at West Side Park, reduced to the bare essentials, matching his career totals: three batters, hit by pitch/hit one, base on balls/walked two, and gave up two unearned runs, without making an out to have an undefined earned run average/ERA. It is sometimes incorrectly displayed as zero or as the lowest ranking ERA when it is more akin to the highest. He played through 1905, but never appeared in a major-league game again.
He had brief stints as a manager in the minor leagues in 1904 and 1914.
Parker died in Hartford, Michigan, at the age of 60.
