McInnes to be the most dangerous man
In the business in the pinches, and ali
four of them have often passed him.
Lord. Oldring and Murphy are all
stars. Murphy is the veteran of the
outfit. but he is probably the most VAL
liable Of the trio. He has wonder
full arm and knows Just where every
batsman hits. And when he leans his
ash against the pellet 1t usually goes a
mile.
Oldring is not nashy performer,
but is always on the Job and is one OF
the surest men on fly balls in the big
leagues. He. too. has a wonderful arm
and has headed off runners trying to
score from second on line singles time
and again.
Lord, the leader-off Of tho Athletic
batting order. is the best man In tho
country in that position. He has a
good eve and seldom swings at a bad
one. He has one fault. and that Ia
that he is a purely right field hitter.
But he has SO much steam behind his
drives that the ball usually shoots past
infelders so fast they can't see 1t.
