Freeman in the game" said Selee, las he
| Is likely to hit the ball very hard at times,
but this style OF play Is not a winner for
when Freeman is dangerous the pitchers
keep the ball away from him, and his hit
ting counts for little. He Is a poor fielder,
thrower and base runner. and has too many
outs for champion team although think
he would make a good first baseman. 1

and trying Tenney In the outfieId, but
brains are needed in the fnfield, and Tenney

Winnie Mercer is a star pitcher and
likes appreciation, too. He's pretty nearly
ar clever at tipping his hat to the grand
ISLANDERS as he is at twirling, and walks
from the field to the bench In a way that

be quite vituperative in reference to some

getting to be an awful rowdy. Go back

Jimmy Casey says Of Elberfeld, who was
once with the Phillies: THAT man Elber-
field, who made so much trouble In the
American League, is q wonderful little
man. The team that could handle him
would get a perfect treasure. ANY pitcher
that could be made work with him would
raise havoc with base runners. Elberfelds
rowdyism comes from nothing else than his
intense desire to win. He Is full Of base
ball from head to foot and doesn't know
what 1t is to get beaten. 1t almost makes
him crazy to lose. and he does q lot OF
things without stopping to think. and the
result IL he gets into a peck OF trouble"
