feint to pass high, but, instead, make

usually moving at top speed. There
come times when your players are
SO closely guarded that it becomes

BY FREDERICK q. LIEB.

n , great first baseman as ever
~ drew OH a glove. That was
Fred Tenney, first baseman
for the crack Boston National in
field OF Collins, Long, Lowe and
Ienney. The praises of Baker,
Barry, Collins and McInnis and
-Steinfeldt, Tinker, Evers and
Chance have been sung by many
writer's and fans, but to many old
timers that Boston infeld was the
greatest Of them all.
Tenney broke into the National
League as left-handed catcher,
was one Of the first colleagues to
take up professional base bail as a.
career, and his success induced a lot
or other college boys to choose base
ball for their life's work.
Fred was born In Georgetown,
Mass, November 26, 1871, and played
in the National League until he was
forty years old. Even when Tenney's
Boston teams were down in the rut,
the fans would come out just to
watch Fred in preliminary practice.
He would toss his glove away. and
take the hardest throws of his in
felders with his bare hands
Tenney broke into the National
League with a rush, as he hit 3s7s in
1894, his first year with the Boston
club. That, incidentally. was the
best average Of Fred's major league
career.
The left-handed catcher from
Brown, however. had the misfortune
to break a finger in his first game
with a big league nine. He played
in his first big time encounter on
June 6. 1894, with the Boston club,
playing In Louisville. Turning back
to the flies of yesteryear, we read
