sresnahan as a Ball Player.

Possibly no ball player on the dia-
mond today is so versatile as Bres-
nahan, the New York catcher. Be
ginning as pitcher he has played
not only that position, but all infield
and outfield positions, and now is be-
hind the bat, in the general opinion
of most New York enthusiasts, the
best the team ever has had since the
days of Buck Ewing. There are
a number of players who have filled
all the outfeld positions, notably
Lave Cross. who. in addition. ranked
among the leading catchers when he
went behind the bat So far as is
