Foxx has spent most of his ca- reer with the Athletics on the bench, for the A's star catcher, Gordon Cochrane, is regarded by many experts as the best in baseball. Ralph Perkins, veteran of the Philadeiphia ca although he is only 3 age, is another star and on 3 clubs would be the first string receiver. Foxx has about taken the job of Cochrane’s und: away from tae clever “Cy. now shares a part of the burden with the former and baseball star, ter. Without OLD RIVALS ENLISTED IN SAME CAUSE George Sisler, who was manag- er of the St. Louis Browns when Rogers” Hornsby was piloting the St. Louis Cardinals, has joined the Rajah,at Boston in an effort to get the Braves out of the sec- ond division by September. When the two play-mates of today were stars of rival clubs in the Mis- souri city and bidding for popu- lar favor from the fans they were the two best hitters assembled in any one city in the country. They went along crashing the' ball at an amazing rate before they were elevated to leadehship. In 1920 Hornsby batted .397 to a mere 371 for Sisler. Both were over 400 in 1923, Hornsby barely get- ting into the class with .401, while Sisler had several points to spare at .420. Hornsby, on familiar National league territory, although in a different city, is hitting like the Hornsby of old and threatening 400 again. Sisler could not get started in the American league and did little hitting on the few opportunities he had with Wash- ington, but with a new back- ground is expected to start hit- ting like a Sisler. ONE LESS SPITBALL PITCHER NOW Clarence Mitchell, big lefthand- er of the Phillies, who has been spitting on major league baseballs for 13 years, has been given his unconditional release, leaving only six devotees of the moist ball de- livery in the majors. As Mitchell fades from the picture at 37 years of age, Bill Doak, Brooklyn; Burleigh Grimes,. Pittsburgh; Stanley Coveieskie and Urban Shocker, Yankees; Jack Quinn, Athletics, and Red Faber of the ‘White Sox are left. Mitchell pitched good ball for Cincinnati, Brooklyn and Philadelphia, al- though he was mot able to win more games than he lost in his big league career. He joined the - Phillies in 1923 and remained un- il 1928, no mean record in itself. ——— .
