Senators Hope Hollingsworth Help from Dodger Pick
Bucky Harris of the Washington Senators says Al Hollingsworth could boost the club. He notes the last Dodger castoff they added became a 20 win season for Dutch Leonard. The Senators also praise Sid Hudson, a rookie from the Florida State League, for holding up despite nine hits and seven runs in a rough stretch. Jim Potahl, the new shortstop, shows flashy defense but was repeatedly out of position in the Washington test against the Yankees and even bumped Jim Bloodsworth once.
