and celebrated his seth birthday an
niversary by announcing that back
in 1873 he executed the first unassist'

Il was shortstopping for the Phila.

were playing the Troy Haymakers.
THE drive came to me at short
stop. I caught the ball, tagged the
runner coming down from second
base and then put the ball on the
fellow coming into second to retire
the side. 1t may not be in the record
books but I made 1t just the same"

Firemen were forced to withhold

In his first shot at the senior
