DIAMOND DUST -

Wednesday, August 18th, and show
that every pitcher we have has a
500 mark or better. Quinn at that
time was leading with Is wins and
four defeats with percentage OF
765; Meehan was next with Is wins
and defeats, with a mark OF 722;
Jolliff was third with 13 wins and
defeats, percentage GA; Bennett
fourth with Is and 3, his mark be-
ing 591; and Hearne had 6 and 6
to his credit with an even 500 mark
opposite his name. Since the aver
ages were released some of these
figures have been changed scme-
what. To say the least a team that
has no pitcher on it under the 500
mark has a good staff of pitchers,
and behind such pitching that team
is bound to win. Here's hoping
for a continuation of the good work.
