Baseball Notes From The Season That Was
Whiffs Tommy Long and Harry Welchonce drew interest from the Al and Minor Leagues though not drafted locally. Leaders like the league's top hitter and top run-getter are linked with champions. Montgomery and other Southern clubs perform well when opposing Browns visit. The Browns boast a speedy keystone duo, with Austin at third and Brat moving to short, while Pratt to Brat proves ideal. Demarce impresses Giants fans with heady pitching and steady results, and Beck, moved to the Braves from the Vols, is seen delivering like Purdue. Ouvimet’s golf victory over Hay and Ward enlivens praise from English critics despite nerves debate. Conzleman’s Pirates debut ends in a lone errorless ninth. Holesworth joins 1914 Barons, Walter Wramesser arrives from Boston and trainer Thomas Tragesser draws Stallings’ confidence.
