Long Sent Back To Southern League Club
Tom Long, once an outfielder and occasional helper in the Washington club, has been assigned to 1918 that likely ends his connection with the Nationals. Released yesterday to the Atlanta club of the Southern League, he performed last season with some success. Long came from Gadsden, Alabama, and is said to be fast and a decent hitter but hampered by a weak throwing arm.
