New York, Aug. 17.-Raymond
Chapman, shortstop on the Cleveland
American League baseball team, who
was hit on the head by a ball thrown
by Pitcher Carl Mays in yesterdays
game with the New York Americans,
died in the st. Lawrence hospital
early today. He never regained con-
sciousness after an operation, hur-
riedly decided on shortly after mid
night. when a portion OF his fractured
skull was removed by surgeons who
hoped that he might recover.
Shortly before it was decided to
operate Manager Iris Speaker, ap-
prehensive of his condition, tele-
phoned to Chapman's wife in Cleve-,
land. who Immediately started for
New York
Game Called Off.
News of his death passed gloom
over both teams and the baseball
world in general, and today's game
was called off. Carl Mays was over
come with grief when the news was
told to him.
The accident occurred at the OUT
set Of the fifth inning. Chapman was
the first batter up and was hit by the
first ball pitched. So terrific was the
blow that the report of the impact
caused spectators to think the ball
had struck his bat. Mays. acting un-
der this impression, felded the ball
that rebounded halfway to the pit
cher's box and threw it to first base
in order to retire Chapman.
Then 1t was noticed that Chapman
had collapsed at the home plate. He
was lifted to his feet by other play
ers, stood dazed for a saoment, stag
gered and crumpled VI at their feet.
Physicians were Immediately called
from the grandstand and they ad-
ministered first aid, still not knowing
that he had suffered a fractured skull.
Piece Of Skull Removed.
Manager Iris Speaker and Busi-
ness Manager Walter McNichols. of
Cleveland, went to the hospital I'M
mediately after the game and We're
at the institution when the operation
was performed. The surgeons made
an incision three and one-half inches
long thru the base of the skull on the
left side. They discovered a rupture
of the lateral sinus and a quantity
of clotted blood. A small piece of the
skull was removed.
The physicians at first entertained
a faint hope that Chapman could re-
cover, but he failed to rally.
Mays, in discussing the accident,
said the ball he threw, was "sailer''
one that breaks sharply on one
SIDE due. usually, to a rough spot on
the cover.
May Blast Championship Hopes.
He asked for another ball before
pitching to Speaker, who followed
Chapman at the plate, and the ball
which fatally injured the shortstop
was thrown out of the game.
In baseball circles it was believed
that Chapman's death would serious
ly hamper Clevcland's chance of cap
turing the American League pennant.
He was veteran and one of the
mainstays Of the team.
