Southern League Dope Ran Very True to Form
The 1914 Southern league season closed with Morey and his Barons winning a third pennant for Siagtown. Mobile's Bris Lord surprised by finishing second, while Chattanooga faltered under Harry McCormick. The race featured strong showings by Nashville and Atlanta but suffered from weak short defense and key injuries. The federal league drained top prospects, limiting veterans from major leagues returning to the circuit.
