Harry najled 39 men from ihe outfield, getting them at different bases. Mike Mitchell, While playing with the Cincinnati team, equaled the mark set by Niles, heading oft 39 men by his power to shoot a ball from the farthest corner of the out- field with sufficient -aceuracy and speed to get hig man. Ty Cobb, Joe Birmingham, Tris Speaker, Joe Jack- son and Milan of Washington - all have made especially good records in this direction and lead their respect ive teams in throwing out baserun- ners from the remote corners of the outer garden. - In his day, Fielder Jones was a past-master in pegging the ball from the outfield, and nip ped many runners. . © ie in the National League since 1900, Red Murray of the Giants, last year with Toronto, has the most consist- ent record of the old league out- fielders in making assists, he leading the league in four different seasons. Ellis, who used to be with the Cards, was good at making long throws, and had an average of 25 a season. Thus, Bates, Cravath and Snodgrass have good marks fo accurate throw- ing from the outfield. But the old boys, back in the halcyon days of the '80's made some astonishing records in throwing out baserunners from afar off, Jimmy Fogarty the Phillies aferaged an assist ky the outfield every third game he Mayed in. Sam Thompson of the old Detroits and Phillies, was a mighty thrower-in hig day. Jimmy Ryan of the Chicago Na- tionals, left-handed, though he was, could shoot a ball from the farthest corner of the outfield with. deadly effect. -Bill Lange had & wonderful throwing arm and was feared by all baserunners in the National League. m-- ness United States entrant, finishe last jag the yanking busi a Jae; in the field.
