# Talk:Johnny Antonelli

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Johnny Antonelli's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "nytobit":
From Willie Mays: Goldstein, Richard. Don Zimmer, Who Spent 60 Eventful Years in Baseball, Dies at 83. The New York Times June 5, 2014. Retrieved August 15, 2020.
From Al Smith (outfielder): Goldstein, Richard (January 6, 2002). "Al Smith, 73, Dies; Was Doused in Series". The New York Times. Retrieved April 5, 2019.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 15:21, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Initial review 


### Lead
Where is his middle name sourced?
His height and weight aren't sourced anywhere that I can see either.
It's a little repetitive to mention the $52,000 bonus twice in short succession perhaps. Do we need both mentions?
"never pitching more than 96 innings", perhaps add "in a single year" or similar if that's what is implied?


### Early life
Probably worth adding "née" in the brackets ahead of Messore.
Is Jefferson High School mentioned here Thomas Jefferson High School (Rochester, New York)?
"from nine of the 16 Major League Baseball teams", avoid switching between digits and words when using comparable figures, per MOS:NUMNOTES.
Add (MLB) after Major League Baseball to explain further uses of the abbreviation.
"the largest bonus", was this the largest signing bonus so to speak? If so I would add that to the sentence perhaps.
"the largest bonus in baseball history at the time.[2][1][3]" although it's not a hard and fast rule, refs are generally presented in numerical order unless there's a specific reason not to.
"fighting for Boston's first National League pennant", fighting seems a little sensationalist. Perhaps, just challenging or competing?


### Braves' "bonus baby"
"Antonelli gain more experience. Antonelli", the double use of Antonelli in quick succession is a little repetitive here. Perhaps drop the second for "He"?
"in a 4– triumph", something missing here.


### Giants' All-Star pitcher
"Willie Mays biographer" > Mays'
"led the league in ERA", is there a need to relink ERA again here? It's used pretty frequently prior to this and is linked appropriately at the first usage.
Add a convert template for "100 degrees Fahrenheit".
"suspended Antonelli indefinitely without pay, pending an apology", do we know if he made the apology or Durocher relented?
It wasn't clear in the sources I found, which is why I left it unclear in the article. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 13:52, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
"from Section Five of the Polo Grounds", Polo Grounds is used here but not linked until the next mention.


### Indians and Braves, retirement
Polo Grounds is linked again here.


### References
Ref 4 uses a different date format for the archive and accessdates.
Other than that, the refs seem well formatted and a few random spot checks of info check out.
Overall, a high quality article with only some minor points to pick up on. Placed on hold for now while these are addressed. Kosack (talk) 09:43, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

All of my comments have been suitably addressed, happy to promote now. Kosack (talk) 19:05, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
