ONE MANS IDEA.
Editor of The Times.
Sir.-The makeup OF the Richmond
baseball club. which was printed in one
of the daily papers last Wednesday, and
which is to be composed hereafter. will,
in my opinion, weaken the team. !. be
ing a patron of the game. am dissatisfied
with it. Sholta should be kept in the
game regularly. as he is a good player
and fast runner.
The management of the club had bet
ter try to buy Wrigleys release from he
Washington oase ball club and play him
at short-stop. Now &c the time fo- hem
to do so. as the latter club does not need
him to play regularly.
Nearly everybody wants t. see 1im play
on the Richmond team. l think the
makeup of the team should compose as
follows:
Foster and Schabel. catchers: Chesbro.
Flynn. Lever. Schmidt. Summell. and
Stultz pitchers: Elsoy. ni st base; Shota,
second base; Elberheld. thnd tase: Wrig-
ley, short-stop; Kahn, left field; Hargrove,
centre field; Maizena,. right field.
l believe this would greatly strengthen
the team. PATRON.
