Connie Mack Sees A's Best Pennant Chance in 1950
Connie Mack, nearing 87, previews the 1950 season with the Philadelphia Athletics as potential pennant winners. He cites winter trades worth about 100000 dollars and adds that strengthened infield and catching, plus solid pitching, give the club a better chance than in years. He predicts a tough race with strong challengers including the Yankees, Cleveland, Detroit, and surprising White Sox and Red Sox.
