He is pinch hitting most of the time.
Philadelphia Nationals have OBJ

Charleston South Atlantic league club.
George Kelly, while not strong on
home runs this season, is hitting in
fine shape and leading the Giants at

In the earlier days of base

nounce that it Knocked the
cover off the ball." A thirty

Of the season due to nervousness, but
