Triple Play, Unassisted,
Made by Sam Crawford

Sam Crawford, former heavy
hitter of the Detroit Tigers. who
is playing good base ball for the
Los Angeles club, in the Pacific
Coast League, recently made Il
''trfp!e play unass.sted. The
bases were damned with Los
Angeles players and nobody out
when Sam came to bat. CraN-
ford hit the ball deep into the
Outfield. The three men on bases
thought the ball would be
caught, Sam didn't think SO.
The three runners remained an
chOred to their sacks waiting
for the catch. Sam summoned
all the speed he had and circled
the sacks. Sam had passed third
when the ball struck the
ground. the Outtielder missing
the ball entirely. As Sam crossed
the plate the umpire yelled
"Out." Sam was then told that
he had automatically retired
each runner he had passed. This
instead of getting credit for a
home run.
