When Pennock went 10 Japan IN

that he would lose his efficiency, when
he came to pitch for New York in

the predictions went wild. Pennock
pitched better ball than he had ever
done since he stepped into the ranks
of the big circuit.
1t was odd that Pennock should
have revolved from Philadelphia to
Boston and then back TO New York

a pitcher whom he had released as
