THREE GREAT PLAYERS
BALTIMORE TRIO PICKED As
BEST ~ ONE CRITIC.
Keller, Kelley and erodle Were Hard
Hitters and Clever FieIders-Davy
Jones Spoiled Chances Of De.
troit for Greatness.

There have been SO many good out.
fields in the history of the diamond
that to pick out one and name 1t as
the best would be sure to start an
argument. 1t may be difficult for pres.
ent day fans to acknowledge a trio
better than Speaker. Hooper and Lew
is, the Red Sox wonders of 1912; or
Oldring, Walsh and Murphy. But fans
recalling stars of other days, will voice
the opinion that there were outfielders
In the past able 20 throw dust in the
eyes of the greatest of today, says a
baseball writer.
In 1879 or 1880 Providence boosted
an outfield composed Of Jim O'Rourke,
Paul Hines and Tom York. They hit
collectively about $40, but were not
high class fielders. Recently five out
fields have been named as the best in
the game. These. according to rank
were the trios of Baltimore in 1894, Of
Brooklyn in 1900, Of Boston in 1897, Of
the Red Sox in 1912. and Detroit in
1909.
Just as the Athletic infeld has been
praised, have Speaker, Lewis and
Hooper been lauded to the skies. but
are they the equal of Keller, Kelley
and Brodie. Of the Orioles. or Keeler,
Fielder Jones End Sheckard Of Brook.
Ign?
Keller was the cleverest man in
baseball. In 1894, with Baltimore, he
batted 1857, and in 1900 he batted 1856
for Brooklyn. This brings the supe.
riority Of either Of these outfelds
down to four men, Brodie and Keeler.
Jones and 5heckard. for Keeler was
equally good with both teams.
Barring Keller. Walter Brojie was
the most uncanny Judge of fly ball
that ever spoiled base hit. He owned
q fine arm and batted 500, compared
to Sheckard's .305, but Sheck Offset
the difference by working pitchers for
bases on balls frequently.
Joe Kelley was a terrific hitter. bat.
ting close to 400. and often for extra
bases. Opposed TO him. Fielder Jones
was one Of the craftiest men in the
game. and. while nowhere near Kel.
ley's equal as batter. he narrowed
the margin by his cunning. But first
place must go to Kelley.
Had Davy Jones been a 800 batter,
Detroit's 1909 outfeld would have
ranked with those Of Baltimore and
Brooklyn. but despite the brilliancy Of
Cobb and the smuggling OF Sam Craw.
ford, Davy's failure as reliable bat.
ter prevented the trio from becoming
immortal.
No two men. not II they were both
Cobbs, can overcome the weakness
Of a mediocre player, because the ideal
outfield must be smooth working
machine. with every man capable Of
doing what the others are capable Of.
to maintain the balance.
Clarke. Beaumont and sebring Of
