Baseball notes hint at star potential and team moves
Jings Donahue shines at first for the Chicago Americans and may be used for utility if Isbell signs. Roscoe Miller could become a star under Fred Clarke, while McGraw may rue letting the ex-Detroiter go. Pittsburgs train at Hot Springs with just enough in reserve for three teams and an umpire. Washington may have a spring training edge. New York police plan an A A U meet with Boston or Chicago.

Roxbury Latin Opens Season With 11–4 Win Over Mechanic Arts
Roxbury Latin defeated Mechanic Arts High School 11 to 4 in the opening schoolboy baseball game of 1904 at Dorchester Town Field. Captain Jack Wendell pitched the full game, wild at times but promising as a fast hurler, while Bjorkland threw three innings for Mechanic Arts. Errors plagued both sides as rough diamond conditions hindered play. Kennedy and Richardson led Roxbury with multiple runs batted in, and Roxbury will face Boston Latin tomorrow at Kranklin Field. Attendance 700.
