Baseball Notes Highlight Early 1900s Pro Baseball Chatter
Baseball notes recount Jones being chased from Detroit grounds three times this year and Washington's lack of double plays against Cleveland. Rain halted a Departmental League doubleheader last night while Washington leads Cleveland in wins over 1904 totals. Washington ends the series with Boston then heads to New York. Stahl targets hits after twenty five safeties in eighteen games. Pirates press Giants but likely no climb to McGraw’s club. many Washington fans may attend potential World Series games in Philadelphia. Rain spoiled the Highlanders and Athletics doubleheader. if not moved to New York next week, the two games in Philadelphia will not be played. A tribute to umpire Jack Sheridan, retiring this year, as possible World Series arbitrator. Tom Hughes’ brother debuted against the Washingtons, but the Nationals compared Chesbro’s reception to that era’s star twirlers.
