won, allowing in the entire nine
games but nineteen hits. Manchester
wanted a good pitcher to help out
Bronkie, and Collins was selected.
His first game here was with the Gu
ban Giants and he covered himself
with glory. Only twenty sight men
faced him. One of these reached first
on a base on balls, but was caught
trying to steal second, one was safe
on an error, while but one connected
safely. He has pitched for Manches-
ter in four games and has won three
of them. The only team to bat his
delivery was the Northampton, Mass. ,
nine, and in that game Manchester
played slow baseball. Collins fields
we'll and is good with the willow.
Before coming to Manchester he had
a fielding average with the Stafford
team of 964 and a batting average of
3O7.
