BASEBALL NOTES.

Fred Clarke has decided finally that
Tommy Leach will play center field
permanently for the Pirates. This will
suit the old third baseman, who would
rather play out in the garden.
Mordecai Brown has left the Cubs
and will spend the next few days at
home. He probably won't do any more
pitching until after the season opens.
He is in the best Of shape.
Frank Bowerman's hand is now all
right, and he says there is no cause
why he should favor it this season. 1t
looked for time last summer as If
''Big Mikes" catching days were over.
