James Lawrence Clinton (August 10, 1850 – September 3, 1921), nicknamed "Big Jim", was an outfielder in Major League Baseball. He played ten seasons in three major leagues. He also managed the Brooklyn Eckfords for a short time in 1872, losing all 11 games he managed.[1] Following his playing career, Clinton managed minor league teams in Birmingham, Nashville, and Manchester and worked at a Brooklyn hotel.[2][1][3] In 1896 he earned $10,000 from the sale of four lots in Oakland, California he had purchased with teammate John Farrow during their playing days.[3] By 1920, Clinton was an inmate of the Kings Park Psychiatric Center. He died there on September 3, 1921.[1]
