The tall righthander, wht wears a size IA shoe, is the best pitch CT in the American Colored leagu today and according to record break ing DiMaggio, Paige Is the bes hurler in all baseball. After tn Yankee Clipper went in easy faehiof against the offerings of the coloret star in an exhibition tilt this spring Jolting Joe proclaimed him th greatest pitcher he ever faced afad Di Mag has seen plenty of goot pitchers in his nine years of or ganized ball.
