Nearly every year some hitherto un-
known and unheard of young pitcher
rises to fame IN the big league baseball
arena Almost without exception every
season in the past has produced at
least one sensational pitching star. Last
year King Cole, of the Cubs. made his
appearance and gained a place in the
first ranks by his phenomenal work on
the mound. marry Krause, the young
southpaw, corralled by Connie Mack in
1909, gained an enviable reputation by
his brilliant work that year and so the
record of each year shows the names of
pitchers who have had sudden rise to
fame. often their stay on the favored
pedestal is very brief, though there are
exceptions. Krause was a sensation for
only one season. Whether Cole can con-
tinue to pitch the brand of ball he did
last season is, of course, a matter of
conjecture.
Few of the many recruit pitchers
signed each year by major league clubs
live up to the glowing regulations cred
tied to them. The majority are usually
relegated to the minor leagues from
which they came A pitcher does not
always show his true ability during his
first year in the big league. 1t some
times takes him several years to de-
velop into a star. A notable instance of
this kind is Otis Crandall, the Giant
boxman. Before last season he was not
regarded as possessing more than Or
binary ability Manager McGraw alone
seemed to think well of his work on
the mound and gave him every chance
to make good. Next to Cole. CrandalPs
showing was the most surprising fea-
ture of last season.
This Years Crop.
Among the promising young pitchers
in this years crop are Lefty Russell, of
the Athletics; Harry Ables, Ray Cald-
well and Ray Fisher, of the Yankees;
vean Gregg, of the CleveIands. Ray
Collins, of the Boston Red Sox; Louis
Drucke and Dick Rudolph, of the
Giants; Hearn, of the St. Louis Car
dinals. Weaver, of the Chicago Cubs
and Stack of the Phillies. OF this
number the three that stand out most
prominently, according to past perform
ances are all sOuthpaws. They are
Russell, Ables and Gregg. Russell was
secured by Connie Mack from the Bal
timore Eastern league club at a report
ed price of $4,000. said to be the larg-
est sum ever paid for the services of

most wonderful pitcher developed in
recent years. He is young fellow.
just having reached his majority, and
began his baseball career at Baltimore
with a school team in 1907. Last year
Russell won 13 and lost seven games
for the Baltimore team. He did not
allow more than seven hits in any
game.
Harry Ables's Work.
Harry Ables, the Yankee recruit also
has a splendid minor league record.
He was secured by the New York clpb
from the San Antonio team Of the
Texas league. He is over six feet in
height, of splendid build and remarka-
bic strength. Last year Ables accord

baseball critics of the far west look
upon him as the greatest left HANDED

another youngster who has already
had a trial in the majors. He began
playing with the Red Sox in the latter
