BARRETT MAY
PLAY SHORT
FOR CHANCE.

DILL BARRETT, who made such
ID favorable impression as an out.
fielder with the Chicago White sox
last season. may be shifted to short
stop this year.
While II isn't generally known,
Barrett made his major league debut
as a shortstop and pitcher with Con-
ME Mack's Athletics. He came to
Mack as pitcherinfIelder. but Mack
soon decided that Barrett never had
chance as big league twirler.
Always a pretty good hitter. he
was very erratic in the field. After
a short trial he was relegated to the
bench and later passed out Of the
major league picture.
Acting. perhaps on the opinion Of
Connie Mack. Barrett took TO the out.
field and developed into pretty
good fielder. 1t was his ability to
hit, however. that caused the White
Sox TO bring him back 10 the majors.
Last season Mcclellan, who for
years has been a substitute InfieIder.
won the Job Of shortstopping on the
White Sox. Mcclellan is a great
fielder but no Babe Ruth at the bat.
