WAsBINGfUA's sOUrHPAWPITcHER
Jacob Henry Boyd Olives Proinise of TAX
ing Nigh Rank In the League

SsCcb lienry Boyd, another OF Manager
Schmelz's pitching finds. was born OF
German parents at Martinsburg. W. Va,
In 1874. and that accounts for his getting
the peculiar combination OF Jacob Henry
as prcfiNes to his surname when he was
baptized. When he could spare the time
from ball paying during his early youth
he worked about the saw-mills OF his
home town srd became stationary en-
gineer. Later he became a locomotive
fireman for the purpose Of making himself
p locomotive engineer and now he is II.
ccnsed to run any kind Of engine.
Later In life he moved 10 Roanoke with
his parents. and there became a chum 10
Walter Brodie. the ccntre-relder OF the
Baltimore National League team. They
practced together. and Brodie. who vas
somewhat older and broke into the pro-
fessional ranks first. taught him many
things about ball playing. His inclina-
ton was always toward becoming a
pitcher and before long he was recog-
nized as the crack amateur OF his section
OF Virginia. Last spring he was engaged
by the Roanoke CNa) League team. and
before the season had gone more than FIVE
or six weeks on iis course he was regard
ed as one Of the best twirlers IN that
league. II was not only in pitching that
he developed. however. for II soon got 50
that his batting was a desirable quantity
in every game. and when he was not
pitching he was playing on second base
or IN the Outheld. and played all OF the
positions about as we'll a. any Of those In
the league. notwithstanding that he was
continually being switched about.
When Manager Schmelz went on hunt
for pitching talent last fall he saw Boyd
In q game AZ Norfolk Boyd played a fine
second base In that game for four IN
nings and hit the bali hard on the nose
every time he came 10 the hat. The mana

game between Roanoke and Portsmouth
to-day was characterized by constant
kicking on the part OF the visitors Reed,
Knox. and Tate took exceptions al nearly
every decision made by Umpire Crawley,
and. as a result. It took two and nall
hours to play seven innings. Cra"ley
umntrtnr was wrotched, and both sides
suffered alike.
During he sixth inning Tate gave no.
tice that he would protest the game
Reed was fined $40 for back talk.
As TO the game itself, few words can
dispose OF It. Roanoke's weakness IN the
box caused their defeat. Dunn, VINO
started In TO do the twirling for the home
club. did not last quite two innings.
Lloyd. who succeeded him, did well Tor
three innings. but In the sixth he was
touched up for seven hits, including a
home run and three doubles.
