Passing Show Signals Jennings Mistake On Crawford

American league fans question Detroit manager Jennings for removing Sam Crawford from the lineup as he slows with age. Crawford’s last regular appearance included a triple and two singles, and his power could still aid the team despite base-clogging risks. Pitcher Dye reports from Barton, Md., and will be used soon. Gearin was released after a rough outing. Boxmen face turnover as management plans to bolster the pitching staff. Giants suffer after a 13 game win streak, while Yale football revenue nears 107k with crews earning 40k and expenses around 25k. Gauette remains a weak fielder but steady at the plate for Bridgeport. Red Whalen praised as top fielding shortstop. Bridgeport sits last in standings, Hartford and New Haven lagging, with Low of Springfield energizing fans after a left-field fence barrier shot. Corey Miller last cleared the fence eight years ago. Frank Woodruff also produced a homer. Low, a young Dartmouth ineligible due to Boston Nationals contract, joins the season’s intrigue.
