PIRATES BUY HURLER
WITH STRANGE TWISTS
In PITCHING CAREER
George Boehler Terrible in
1921, Phenomenal in
1922 With Tulsa.

Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 1O.-There are
dipsy-dew turns in careers of ball play
ers. One of the latest peculiar twists
is found in the record Of George Boeh-
Ter, pitcher who has just been pur-
chased by the Pittsburg Pirates from
the Tulsa Club of the Western
League. d"
The records can be pulled to prove
Boehler is the Find" of the minor
leagues. He had a remarkable rec
ord in 1922.
But turn back TO the pages of a
year ago. 1t is discovered that this
same Boehler, with the same Tulsa club,
had the worst record of any pitcher in
the minor league circuit, winning four
games and losing 20.
Boehler is not in the class of young
phenoms. He could not develop any
new fancy twisters that would cause
this unexpected squirt.
The data on Boehler brings out some
Information which probably has passed
the eagle eyes of the National League
fans. He was born January ?, 1894. at
Lawrenceburg, Ind, which puts him
mighty close to the 30-year mark.
Boeher made his professional debut
in 1912 with Springfield in the Ohio
State League. He was purchased by
the Tigers and spent 1913, 1911, 1915
and part of 1916 with Detroit. He was
released to Louisville in the sumner Of
1916. In 1917 he was with Denver
and with Joplin in 1918, 1919 and 1921.
The st. Louis Browns, in bidding
for pitching talent. brought in Pochler
in the spTing of 1919, but sfter a
months trial he was sent to Tulsa.

Billy Evans Says:

Do you think it would be possible for
majority of the spectators at a ma
jor league ball game to file out of the
grounds, feeling sure the home team
had won, only to later learn the game
had been lost?
Doesn't seem as if such a thing
would be possible. yet it actually hap
pened in a game that l umpired in Chi
cago several years ago. Buck Weaver,
now out of professional ball, played the
leading role.
Detroit was playing in Chicago. At
the end of the ninth inning the score
was a tie, and with both pitchers GO
ing good, il looked like a long, extra.
inning struggle. Either the thirteenth
or fourteenth inning Detroit broke the
ice by scoring run. That looked big
enough to settle the outcome of the
game.
Chicago, however, refused to go down
without a fight and with two down
in the last half of the inning, the
White SoX managed TO get runners to
second and third. A base hit meant at
least a tie and probably a win for the
home team.
Oscar Stanage was doing the catch
ing for Detroit. Weaver was on third
base for Chicago and persisted in TAX
ing a big lead. Suddenly Stanage snap
ped throw to third that caught Weav-
er flat-footed.
In the run-up. the Detroit players
had all kinds of difficulty trying to re-
tire Weaver, and several times it looked
as If he might avoid being touched
Beginning to tire and seeing that his
chances to get by We're getting slim
mer all the time. Weaver evidently de
cided to try to pull little inside stuff
He skilfully threw his arm in front
of the ball just as Stanage, standing
near the home plate, was about to re-
ceive it and touch him out. The ball
was DETECTED to the grandstand. Weav-
er, within a few feet Of the plate.
crossed it with much glee. The other
runner, close behind, was also over in
an instant.
The moment Weaver threw his arm
into the ball l called him out for in
reference, retiring the side and ending
the game in Detroit's favor. Stanage,
not knowing how was going to rule,
pursued the ball and threw it TO an.
other player, who was covering the
plate.
Then everyone surged out Of the park.
knowing the game was over. Most of
the spectators, however. thought the
two Chicago runs had scored. deciding
the game in favor of the White SOx.
when in reality Weaver had been called
out for interference. which erased the
two runs.
