Comparison Of Pitchers

Twenty years ago ufnpired the first
ball game Walter johnson pitched in
the major leagues. Detroit the New
York Yankees of that period for bat
ting power, had tough time winning,
80.
On August 2, 1927, it was my very
good fortune to have President john
son of the American league assign me
to Washington to work the game this
commemorated his 10th anniversary
with that club.
AS I recall it, no other pitcher in
the big show has ever been connected
with the same club Tor that many
years.
Sitting in the bench with johnson
before game time, we discussed a lot
of unusual things that have happened
in baseball since 1907.
