NEW YORK, May 2.-Baseball his

the work of a rookie pitcher-thls

his debut for Brooklyn-who played
a leading role in the proceedings.
Shrivers performance in banking
the PhilIies, 2 to 0, with three lonely
bingles, excelled the debuts OF
Mathewson, johnson and other pitch
ing stars. The unique feature OF the
game, however, was the fact that
Post, Dodger first sacker, had only
one put out. A catch of a line drive
in the ninth, and. no assists.
Only once before in the 46 years OF
national league pastime has this rec
ord been equalled. That was on Aug
80. 1916, when Bill Hinchman of the
pirates had but one putout, and that
on the last man in the ninth, in the
second game of a double header with
Boston.
Jiggs Donahue, formerly Of the
White Sox, holds the American League
record with no putouts and only one
assist back in 1906.

on top of the American League today
as result of smuggling out their fourth

sUBBING FOR COBB


Is the job big Bob Fothergill, Tiger
youngster, has drawn this season?
When the Tiger manager was forced
to remain out of the lineup at the start
of the campaign because of injuries
the Massillon, Ohio, star got his first
chance in center and made good with
a vengeance.
This is his third year in professional
ball. He played semi-pro in Massillon
before that. He joined Bloomington
in the Three-Eye league in 1920. De
troit bought him last year and farmed
him out to Rochester Ty Cobb called
him back for inspection this spring.
Fothergill reported under a handicap
of twenty-five pounds excessive weight
but he worked willingly to lose that
and now trips about lightly at 200
pounds.
The colonel of a Scotch regiment
who was disliked by his men wanted
to locate a sniper. He called for
Sandy, the crack shot of the regiment,
and said: Sandy, there's a sniper
over there. He's been shootin' at us
