PIRATES ASK FOR WAIVERS ON
ADAMS, WORLDS SERIES HERO

TIHE announcement that waivers have
i been asked on Charles C"Babe") Adams.
the veteran pitcher Of the Pittsburgh Ma
tional League club, did not create much of a
surprise among local fans today, as It was
apparent when he faced the Phllles last
week that this famous hurler was about
through as a major Lacquer.
Adams is one Of the few recruit pitchers
who was able to stand the strain of a
worlds series in his first season in the
major leagues and his work in 1909 stands
out as one of the most remarkable pitch
ing feats In the history of modern base
ball.
Unknown, Adams jumped in as the main
stay of Pittsburgh and succeeded in win
ming three games from Detroit in six days,
including the final game, which decided the
championship. Adams pitched wonderful
ball and won on his merits, completely mas
terlng the slugging Tigers
Adams was born at Upton, Ind, on May
is, isSS and began his professional base
ball career with the Parsons team of the
Missouri Kansas League In 1906. His work
attracted the attention OF the st. Louis
National League team, which purchased
him at the end of the season. After brief
trial he was released to Denver.
Adams remained with Denver for two
reasons, and In 1907 won is consecutive
victories, which at that time equaled the
mnor-league record. This sensational
string of victories caused the Pittsburgh
club to purchase him. He was sent to

Both matches were played in the hottest

cept Washburn became thoroughly ex-

washburn played splendid back-court

the champion was able to utilize his deadly

than that OF Maurice E. McLoughlln.
The Armstrong Kumagae match was
purely back-court affair. II was expected
that Kumagae would wear down the Phla-

who wllted. In the second set he nearly col
