Passes of Springfield players point to Bridgeport tryouts
The Springfield YMCA first baseman Dot Whalen and Zielmanski from the same college returned home after brief tryouts with Bridgeport. Red Whalen’s strong showing left Zielmanski unused at shortstop, and Jack Dell may handle first base. The club needs an experienced catcher and a reliable backstop to steady pitchers. Mulenan, Ero, and Dye are top pitching prospects. Ouimet abandons Massachusetts Open after deciding against cash prize. Dan Tipple has won more games than any other pitcher on Dunn’s staff. Dundee Leonard bout ends in dispute among New York writers. Joe Tinker’s Cubs fall to the Giants. Almeida bats for Montreal.
