LEACH CROSS BEATS AND

NEW YORK, June possibility Of a
championship match doomed brightly be-
fore Leach Cross, the Bowery dentist, to-
day, as a result of his victory over
Knockout Brown, the fast little side light
weight. in their ten-round boxing con-
test at Madison Square Garden last night.
There was a tentative understanding that
the winner would likely be matched with
Ad Wolgast.
Although Brown set the pace through
out the bout he did practically no exc
cution, while Cross stood off and shot in
deadly counters that had it's opponent in
misery half of the time. Brown was
knocked down twice and in the eighth
round was nearly out.
The majority of Browns blows went
wild while Cross seldom missed his mark.
The boys weighed in at pounds.

The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram., 1912-04-18
BY AD. GuMB BERT,

we ever really forgot them, for when
We of other generations of baseball
get together once in a while and play
them over again. the old arms feel
strcns and the old hearts thrill again.
The greatest play ever saw, the
one that comes to my mind whenever
a great play is mentioned, was made
by Connie Mack, now manager of the
worlds champions. That play, for
originality and quickness of thought
and execution, believe was the great
est and most surprising l ever saw.
and l had the honor of being one of
the actors in it.
The play was made when I was
pitching for Pittsburg and Mack was
the catcher. No brainier catcher ever
stepped back of the bat. We were
playing Chicago and dear old Cap An
son was leading that team. In those
days Anson was a terror at bat-and
they may talk forever about great hit
.ters and not convince me that any
greater hitter than Anse ever walked
pitched against him-and knew him.
He was the surest man I ever saw
in pinch, especially with men on
bases. In the game of which I speak
we had lead of one run and in the
ninth inning Chicago had two men on
bases and Anson at the bat. Amy man
who ever pitched to Anson knows
what that meant. The old man swung
a war club that looked as big as a
fo 1,jtohop ond ho
stood there as solid as if rooted, and
hit almost anything pitched, and hit
It hard, squarely and on the line. The
situation was bad, but Mack kept me
working Anson, in, out and curve, un-
til we got two strikes on him and.
think, two balls. Anyhow we knew
the next ball had to go over the plate
and Anson knew it and pulled his
belt tighter and settled himself to hit.
Then Connie Mack worked the play.
He walked to the base line from home
to first and made a sharp remark to
Arson that for an instant took Caps
attention away from the pitching. At
the instant he spoke Connie flashed
me a signal to pitch and I suddenly
grasped the idea and cut loose fast
straight ball right through the heart
of the plate-where Anson would have
murdered 1t had he been watching. As
I pitched Connie made a leap and as
the ball went over the plate he
caught it and Anson was called out on
the third strike, retiring the side and
giving us the victory.
