Remember Jack Stencil


Stencil, the Pittsburg- Balti.
more slugger of the '90's, who
was an earlier edition of the
world-famous Hans Wagner.
An injury, seemingly slight,
cut off Jake Stencil in his prime
and cost baseball one of the great
est natural hitters that ever
swung an ash stick.
Stencil is a citizen of Cincin-
natl now and is located near the
home of the Reds, where he
"draws der lager for Schmidt"
In the summer months especial
ly Stencils saloon does thriv-
ing business, because it is the
nearest thirst dispenser to the
ball grounds.
Stencil was a terrific hitter.
He batted right handed. He
stood at the plate like Wagner,
and, like the Flying Dutchman. "
when he gave the ball a ride he
started 1t with every ounce of
weight and every particle of
strength in his stocky frame.
Stencil for the five years pre-
ceding his retirement was a bad
dream to pitchers. Beginning in
1893 and continuing through
1897, he hit respectively, 400.
ISL, 1854, .366 and .351.
And he performed in this fash
ion against such pitchers as
Young, Cuppy, GARRISON. CAST
right, Nichols, weighing, Rusie
and Mullane, to say nothing of
others, of fame less lasting.
The injury which took this
star from the game was wrench
from which he never recovered.
Stencil Is native of Cincin-
natl. He was born there June
"a, 1867. and played amateur
baseball we'll enough in 1885 to
attract attention. The next year
Wheeling, w. Va, gave him his
first professional job and he
played with the team until 1889,
when he went to Columbus. The
next year he was with Chicago.
Chicago sent Stencil to Port
land, but in 1891 Pittsburg
bought him and that summer he
became the most dreaded of hit
ters.
Disregarding the protests oil
thousands of fans, Pittsbure
traded the great center fielder to
Baltimore in 1897 and he helped
the Orioles chase Boston to a
tight finish and his bat played q
leading part in the Temple cur
series when Baltimore beat Bos.
ton four to one.
Stencil took Walter Brodie's
place in the famous outfield, OF

Ned Hanlon permitted him to go
to st. Louis, where everything
possible was done to save him,
