Lorainite Denied Injury Claim Against Indians Farm Team
The Ohio Workmen's Compensation Board of Review denied a $4025 claim by Deleon Bastock of Lorain who lost an eye while with the Cleveland Indians farm system. The board ruled he was not an employee of an Ohio corporation despite the Indians owning his contract. Bastock, a 19 year old pitcher signed in 1933, was with Sherbrooke Quebec and hurt May 9 1954 in his first game. Officials noted Sherbrooke is owned by locals and separate from the Indians under Quebec law.
