He's s4. The players kidded him about that for most of them were still kids when he said goodbye to the ma jors.
 Mig kidded back but he bided his time. When the Phils reached Chica- go Mig wired his mother, Mrs. c. H. Clarke of Detroit to meet him there. She came down.
 Now tell these kids how old I am, mother" he said.
 He's just 34 and I ought to know was Mother Clarke's reply.
 That's pretty young for an old ex- major leaguer who had been away for many years. But Mig started playing when he was IT.
 He thinks there is lots of baseball in him yet. And he looks it.

Baseball has changed, especially in Cincinnati, and from Wright to Moran has been an awful drag.
 Back in the days when Wright was manager, they won every game played, 57 in all, scoring 2395 runs and knocking out ITO home runs.
 In 50 years from now it will be Moran, not for the games he won, but for putting the Reds back to a pro- fessional standing.
 He was the original miracle man of baseball although no one ever thought of such a title until George Stallings

He didn't care for anything. The ofd thirst had departed. The wild Indian in him was dead.
 He landed a job with the Phillies. Those who read the two or three line item supposed he was going to act as ccach or catch the pitchers when they warmed up.
 Then one day he caught a game. The fans began to ask who this new catcher Clark was. They hadn't heard anything about him.
 Now he is catching regularly-taking his turn with the other Phil backstops. He is full of the old pepper again-a likeable fellow, too. He is catching a good game and scampers about the diamond like kid. He isn't fat or slow and his age doesn't seem to make any difference.

Fifty years ago this season Harry Wright threw the first baseball into a professional game. That was back in 1869 when he organized the first pro- fessional team. The Cincinnati Red Stockings started out to beat the world, and did.
 If the Reds win the pennant Wright will have the honor of pitching the first ball at the coming worlds series and has lived to see Cincinnati at the top again and baseball on the plane where he had tried to elevate it
