Lefty Isekite, star left handed
pitcher Of the Tacoma Tigers,
was indefinitely suspended and
fined SIS Thursday night when
ne failed to show up for a sched-
uled game between Tacoma and
Spokane at Athletic park, 1t was
announced by President Jack
Quill.
Isekite had been assigned by
Manager Bobby Garretson to
pitch the game and 1t had been
announced that the left handler
would pitch.
ANNOUNCED BY MANAGER
The suspension of the left
handler was announced after Man.
ager Garretson had conferred with
club officials.
ut Is the objectionable sin
of baseball for a player to
fall TO show up for n game
except for illness or when ex-
cused by the manager" Gar
retson IL quoted rs saying.
"Isekite did not notify me that
he did not intend to show up for
the game and did not tell any of
the club officials, as far as 1 know.
His failure to show up left me
and the rest of the team in a
tough spot. Playing a crucial
game with the leagues leading
team, we needed all the strength
we could muster because We have
been hard hit by injuries and ILL
ness.
II want to apologize to the fans
for a situation that necessitated
putting in a catcher to pitch,
thereby making a farce of the
game. Bremen Is entitled to
credit for his efforts"
LEFTY EXPLAINS
when we (Firpo, Farrell and
several others of the team got
our last checks were were short
ened in our pay from so cents to
around $3.50 for meals beyond our
budgets" said Isekite this morn
ing. when 1 saw the checks l
blew up. I told Business Manager
sgd Anderson and Manager Bobby
Garretson that they could have
my uniform. / told them I'd
change my attitude when refunds
had been made.
after all, the boys have
been playing with injuries and
giving all they had. l had
pitched any time they called
for me. Our pitching staff
and team had been hurt by
injuries. Yet none of US COM
planned. We didn't know those
few pennies were coming out
of our checks. None of us
knew we had over-eaten our
allowances.
Anyway, / was sore and ! let
them know. ! went home and
that's all there is TO ii. They knew
I had gone home and wasn't COM
ing back until the situation con-
corning the meals had been fixed"

Some Of His Fost Ploys
Must Be Pure Instinct.

The average good first base
man. like Dolph Camilli, sticks like
glue 10 the base when a throw is
coming to him. Dahlgren realizes,
when the throw is 20 feet wide, that
it's just as we'll if the runner doesn t
reach second, so he moves over and
bats down the throw.
Some of his plays are so fast that
they must be pure instinct. l re-
member one where a runner was
caught f1at-footed off first base.
But the throw from the pitcher was
in the dirt, giving Dahlgren no
chance to make the tag. So he
dropped to his hands and knees as
he sCooped up the ball and the run
ner tripped over him and sprawled
on the other side of the base with
out touching it. Then the Babe
turned around and tagged him.
He has no peer for taking throws
high, wide or out of the dirt. One
year in Boston, when Joe Cronln
nerves were edgy, Dahlgren saved
Joe 100 errors on throws by catch
ing everything that came from the
shortstop Unfortunately, being a
brash fellow, the Babe mentioned
this point. He left Boston soon
afterWard.
I'm betting against legend that
the man never lived who could play
the position better than Ellsworth
Dahlgren. And don't let your
grandfather tell you different.

Seems to Invent PIoys
As He Goes AIonq.

The guy can do everything, and
! have hunch that he invents plays
as he goes along. It's too bad he's
not a hitter. With the batting
rcwer to 60 with his consummate
fielding skill, he would be true
baseball miracle. like Sisler and
Cohb and Speaker and Wagner.
You have to see the Babe every
day to appreciate the full range Of
his stuff, because, as I say, he al
ways is improvlsing. But half a
dozen elimpseS in season will con-
vince you of the truth Of my argu-
ment, if your mind and eyes are
open.
Terry made no mistakes at first
but Dahlgren is twice as fast as
Terry. Sisler was fast, but Dahl
gren is more agile and resourceful,
Lacking what is known as grace. he
may impress you on first sight as a
scrambler and an acrobat. So he is,
but pretty soon you realize that he
never misses. He is sure as death.
The double-play from first to sec
ond to frst-said to be the finest
in the game-Dahlgren can make
10 different ways. He plays eood
right feId-from first base. He can
range all over the park for pop
fouls. and take them over his shoul-
der or with his glove behind his
back-never for show, always be-
cause it's the easiest way for him
to make that particular play.

Press Box
DohIgren Hailed Best
At First Base Today
BY JOHN LARDNER,
Special Correspondent of The Star

NEW YORK, June II (NANA).
The baseball fan is stepped so
deeply in the history of his game
the records of Cobb and Wagner
and Mathewson and Alexander, the
legends of the 100000 infield and
the miracle Braves and Snodgrass'
muff-that he inclines sometimes
to overlook or to discount what is
going on before his eyes, in this
year of limited grace.
I doubt whether 1910 is any more
important than 1910. It's just the
spell of history. in a game where
historical data is preserved to the
third decimal point and a hero sell
dom assumes heroic proportions eX-
cept IN retrospect.
That's all right, but the fan cheats
himself of a thrilling experience
when he fails to recognize a great
ball player performing before his
very eyes and to realize that some
of the history he loves is being made
as he watches.
The fan always jumps back at
least one generation for his heroes
It's hard for him to conceive of a
present-day player as genius.
And, I repeat, this can be an in
justice both to the player and to
himself.

Bobe's PIoy on Defense
Shouts for Attention.

We will take a random example
not too random, at that-for the
fellow I have in mind is a genuine
baseball genius, whose work shouts
for attention. He is not reckoned
a very valuable property today, as
ball players go, but if an old-timer
were to swear to me on stack of
Testaments that there ever was a
greater defensive first baseman than
Ellsworth Babe Dahlgren of the
Yankees I wouldn't believe him.
The old guy has an advantage
over me, of course, in debate. He
always can say to me, did you ever
see Hal Chase play?" and when I
admit that never did, he can bel
low, Then you don't know what
you're talking about"
There's nothing to do about that.
I never saw Chase, or Fred Tenney,
or Frank Chance or Cap Anson.
But I did see Sisler and Terry and
Judge and Grimm, and I can only
believe so much about the fellows
I didn't see
This Dahlgren, now. know he's
not as graceful and rhythmic as
Sisler in action, and therefore I'm
prepared to concede that he's not
as graceful as Chase. But that's as
far as III go.
