Purdy Spikes Controversy Over 1933 Batting Title
In a San Antonio Missions game, Purdy allegedly sacrificed a chance at the 1933 Tessas league batting crown to help his team secure second place in the Shaughnessy plan playoff. Zeke Bonura led unofficial averages at .3538 as Purdy stood at .335. Purdy struck out on his final at bat as Galveston sought a late train, while Bonura improved with six hits in seven at bats.
