TvvlRLED A LONG GAME
Jack Coombs Won 24.lnninu
Contest From Boston.
Former Pitcher Of Champion Athletics
Enjoys Honor Of Pitching Longest
Game In Major Leagues
Score Was 4 to I.

Jack Coombs has the honor Of
pitching the longest game ever played
In the majors. On September 1, 1906,
he worked "a innings against Bos-
ton and came out on top by a score
Of to 1.
The year 1910 was big one for
the Iron Man" of the Athletics. He
won 81 games out of 40 starts, a per.
centage of .775. In 13 of these games
he whitewashed his opponents. At
one stretch during the season he went
for 46 consecutive isnings without al.
lowing run to be scored on his de.
livery. On August he worked q
sensational 16-inning game against
Chicago, Ed Walsh opposing him for
the White Sox. Neither team was
able to make run in the 16 innings,
so mastery did both pitchers work.
Coombs was the more effective Of
the two. allowing only three hits in
the 16 innings. On September Fl he
pitched an Aiming to 0 affair
against Cleveland, only three hits be.
ing made by the Maps.
In the worlds series Of 1910 he
worked three times in six days

against the Chicago Cubs and scored
q trio Of victories over Chances great
team. He has yet to lose q game In

tically three years. Coombs Is get.
ting chance to come back" with
the Brooklyn Nationals. Those who
have watched Coombs in action say
that he has the old.time pep and that
his curves are as puzzling as ever.

with the Brooklyns this season.
