S A Gets Mike Christoff From Oakland Coast Club

Mike Christoff, a right handed hitter with a past trial with the Reds in 1941 and a Texas League standout with Houston, is slated to join the San Antonio Missions as outfield help within days. The purchase from the Oakland era of the Pacific Coast League was announced today as a potential boost for a team hoping for a big turnout after an unsettled night in Fort Worth. The game featured a pitching duel with Earl Caldwell for Fort Worth and Al LaMacchia for San Antonio, but rough fielding and late arrivals marred attendance and the crowd left early before the late start.
