national game, perhaps none is as
we'll known to old-timers as the one
which happened to Cliff Carroll, on
the ST. Louis grounds, when he was a
member of the famous Browns"
Perhaps you have wondered why base
ball players have plain shirt fronts,
and why so few players have breast
pockets. Cliff Carroll is the reason.
He was running forward to take a
base hit on the first bound. The ball
bounced crooked and hit him on the
chest He grabbed at the ball hastily
and, as he clutched it, he showed 1t
down into the handkerchief pocket on
his shirt front. The runner saw Car
roll Juggling and straining to tear the
ball out of the pocket and instead OF
stopping at first, he sprinted on to Sec
ond while Carroll, still trying to dis
lodge the ball, ran to second. The
batter pa ssed the fielder and turned
for third with Carroll in pursuit. At
third Carroll stopped and tried in vain
to release the ball, and the runner
kept on across the plate and scored
the Whining run. Chris Won der Abe,
who at that time was at the head OF
the euphonic trio, Won der Abe, Muck
enfuss and Diddlebock, which operat-
ed the club, was furious and ordered
all pockets removed from baseball
shirts. Other teams followed and the
pockets never have been restored, ex-
cept by a few players who are willing
to risk the repetition Of the accident.
OF all the good luck freaks that
ever heard recounted, the best was
that which happened to Frank Isbell
when he was playing with st. Paul in
the old Western league. In those
DAYS baseball on Sunday was not per
mitted within the corporation limits
of ST. Paul, and a Sunday park had
been erected outside the city's jurls-
diction. The ground was extremely
small and was inclosed by high
fence. So small was the Enclosure
that batters hitting the ball hard
against the fences were compelled 70
sprint to first. because If the ball hap
pened to rebound directly to the field
er. he could throw slow runner out.
AS it required about four hits OF their
equivalent in errors to yield run,
small scores were the rule. In the
ninth inning of this game Milwaukee
had two runs the advantage and there
were runners on first and second with
Isbell at bat St PauPs only loglcal
hope was for home run over one OF
the high fences. Isben hit a hard
line smash to right field against the
fence. The runner on first was
slow man and the fielder squatted'
expecting the ball to rebound to him
and to whirl and force the slow man
at second base. ending the game. But
the ball didn't rebound. 1t impaled
itself on a wire nail about ten feet up
the fence. and while the Milwaukee
outfelders were hunting a ladder, Is
bell circled the bases and won the
game.
Another peculiar play once gave the
Chicago White Sox a game that
