Con Roberts touted as a strong twirler for Mosinee
Con Roberts of Mosinee claims he struck out twenty four batters in a game last season. Manager Bond of the Outcasts says Roberts is too good for them. Wegman, released after a poor appearance at Rochester, had speed and curves but nerves, while Jack Hooker returns from a sore arm to start for the Outcasts. Frank Force of the Minny League rejects three protested games after affidavits show Winona club stayed within salary limits. Hooker plans to pitch this afternoon against Red Wing as the Outcasts aim to win.
