Orval Overall The Cubs Star Twirler From California
Orval Overall, a towering California pitcher, built a strong record after joining the Chicago Cubs. In 1905 he moved from Cincinnati to Chicago and developed into a winning pitcher, with nine straight wins late last season and a 16 game unbeaten stretch in spring. From Trenmo, Washington, 18 2% years old, 210 pounds, six feet two inches, he had college roots and was loaned to Tacoma before making his mark with Chicago and a midseason transfer to Chicago’s club. He pitched two games in last fall’s world series, with wins that might have crowned them champions if he had started.
