second baseman about that time.

Fonseca used to be regarded as a
brittle player who melted when the
sun began to warm up. He had a
trick knee. too. This year he has
forgotten all about his knee and the
sun never gets too warm for him. The
other day his hitting mark was 1863,
just a few points behind Jimmy
Foxx, league leader.
Big league managers deemed Lew
a poor fielder when he was playing

But Billy has been pressing his

I didn't demand the biggest purse in
