CRAWFOR Sam Crawford, former heavy hit- ter of the Detroit Tigers, who is playing good baseball for the Los Angeles Club, in the Pacific Coast League, recently made a "triple play" unassisted. The bases were Jammed with Los Angeles players and nobody out 'when Sam came to bat. Crawford hit the ball deep into the outfield. The three men on bases thought the ball would be caught. Sam didn't think so. The three run- ners remained anchored to their sacks waiting for the catch. Sam suc- moned all the speed he had and cir- cled the sacks. Sam had passed three when the ball struck the ground, the outfielder missing the ball entirely. | As Sam crossed the plate the um- | rire yelled, "Out."
