could stick IL out.
But Griffiths joined the club in
1888 and changed things. He was
the frs. Wilkes-Barre shortstop
to hold the job for a full season.
He kept it for three straight years
and each season was selected for
the post on the leagues annual
all-star nine.
There are a great many fans
around that league fnow known
as the Eastern) who aver Bunny
was the finest shortstop ever TO
perform in the loop.
