JUD WILSON, HOMESTEAD
GRAYS

Back in 1915 l enjoyed dugout
interview with Jud Wilson, whCm
I've always called one of the most
fierce competitors baseball (cClOred
or White) has known. He had been
playing for % seasons then, and was
as unrelenting against topflight
pitchers, Black and White, as he'd
been since breaking in with he
Baltimore Black Sox in 1924.
To Jud Wilson, they all looked
alike Il mean pitchers and they
were Lefty Grove, Dizzy Dean, Bull
let Yoallley, Willie Foster, Satchel
Paig, No-hit Williams, Dick Rdd-
ing and Hilton Smith. When the
Chips were down." Wilson hit them
all and for long distances at that,
The redoubtable Lefty Grove with a
100000 price tag on him was NOW
ing down a select group of Negro
stars one day in the long ago, strik'
ing out most of them more than once
with his "you-can't-see-it" fast ball.
Wilson came to bat and steely-eyed
watched two Grove pitches Cog by
with blistering speed. In a split
second thousands of Negro and
White fans went wild as "Jud"
whaled Grove pitch out-of-the-park
for a two-run homer. Ask "Dizzy"
Dean about his experience with Will
son.

jockey, Isaac Murphy, who flour
ished more than a half-century ago,
