SPORTING PARAGRAPHS

Think of someone being substituted
to bat for Ty Cobb. Saturday at De-
troit George Mullin was sent in to bat
for the Georgia Peach. In the ninth
inning everybody looked toward the
Tigers dugout waiting for Cobb to
come out tap his shoes and lace out
a hit; but no Cobb appeard. The peach
had beat IL TO the clubhouse and was
under the cooling shower. So Mullin
got a chance to do an extraordinary
thing.
Derrill Pratt looms up as one of
the most promising youngsters In the
big leagues. The former Billiken and
University of Alabama star is hitting
.29s and Is fielding well in the out
field He is not fielding as well as he
did in the Southern, but the reason
for this is that he has been fielding
with a crippled hand. Joe Jackson
spiked him and he has not yet re-
covered.
Walter East was much sought after
player when Atlanta gave the veteran
his unconditional release. Three clubs
In the Southeastern offered the former
Turtle q substantial amount to play on
the team Bessemer. Huntsville and
Gadsden made bids for the veteran $
service. However. East went to the
Kansas city club in the American as

AS the usual thing a double header
is divided. However last Saturday IN
the international league every club
played double header. A strange CO.
Incidence was that not single double
bill was divided and that tho four Sec
ond division clubs took two from the
four leading teams. 1t evened up the
race a bit. The leading Rochester club
is under GOO. while the Providence club
which is leading the cellar is battling
at .421 average.

Sensational Support

Although Kane did not seem to pos
sess very much speed. his control was
perfect and his support was sensational
The aid society behind him tielded per-
fectly in the pinches. while he was able
to dispose of the batters with men on
bases. Heck made several pretty stops
for Bessemer.
Baker seemed to have everything
that was needed to win the game ex-
cept batting behind him. He was hit
but for seven hits and seemed to have
speed, curves and control However,
the Hard Luck" artist lost. In the
second inning, Bessemer had its first
opportunity Ramage doubled to CEN
ter field on Morgan's long fly to CEN
ter, he took third. However Kane
struck out Pierre.
Again in the fourth, with men on
first and second base he disposed OF
Ramage and Morgan easily. Heck
opened up with a double to center in
the seventh. However, when Walker
hit line drive which Nichols stabbed
with one hand after long run in right
field, Heck was doubled at second. The
catch was a beautiful one.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1912-06-26
Bessemer Gets Several Chances

Again was an opportunity presented. In
the seventh Cochran opened with a double
to left-center field Ranage sacrificed
him to third but there he rested as Nor
gan hit an easy grounder to first and
Pierre was sent out navigating at the
ozone. The ninth was like several other
innings. Walker got on base but Kane
Whitfield both Cochran and Ramage, the
two heavy hitters of the Bessemer team.
Kane pitched wonderful ball In the
pinches.
Gadsden's two runs were the result of
timely hits In the second Dorsey dou-
bled to left, went to third on an infield
out and scored when Wells grounded
through second. The other run was the
result of a lost bali in left field. Wells
opened up the eighth with what looked
good for a long single. However, the
ball was obscured in the grass and he
made third before it could be recovered.
Then Morton hit a long fly to center
field upon which the receiver scored.
Cochran made perfect throw to the
plate, but Wells beat 1t by step.
Hard Luck" Baker lost another game,
although he pitched nine innings of good
bah. The game was played in the rain.
