The Adventures of Jack Raches By KING LARDNER
Al the Cleveland club trimmed me today and Huggins squawked about it. I could have filed for divorce from the team for lack of support and Rand Johnson runs a home for the blind. I cannot pitch my best against a good club while easing up hoping others will hit. I am too soft hearted to work in this league.
