He began his career in organ-| ized baseball in 1917 as a p\r,cher} for the team he is now to manage. In 1919, he had his first big league chance with the New York Yan, kees. He was back in San Francis- co in 1921 but returned once more to the Yankees the following year. The Boston Red Sox had him in 1923 but again he failed to stick. Making no great strides as a pitcher O'Doul decided to try the shoe on the other foot. In other words, he concentrated on batting| and did so well he led the Coast | League in batting while wearing a Selt Lake City uniform in 1924. It was not a mere stroke of luck with Lefty.

He made eight straight hits in 1929 with the Phillies while setting a league record of 254 hits that sea- son. His greatest single day was when he drove out three home runs in a Brooklyn-Pittsburgh dou- ble header in 1932. The first hom- er tied the opening game while the second won it. The third -circuit smash was responsible for the sec- ond Brooklyn victory of the after- noon. He leaves the National league with a lifetime batting mark of 352, . Always Helped the Kids Known as the “man in the green suit,” he was as popular off the diamond as in uniform. A year ago an imposter arrayed in a bright green suit, made the mistake of posing as the affable Lefty before a group of loyal Giant rooters in a Greenwich Village tavern. When the police asked O'Doul if he wanted to press the charge against the fellow Lefty laughingly refused, commenting that at last he had attained some degree of renown. His interest in sand-lot young- sters was no publicity seeking stunt —it was a genuine feeling for the J HIGH SCHOOL GYM March 13, 14,15 " 7:45 P. M. Admission 40c Children 25¢ the game he loved. It was quite the usual sight to see him stop and give the boys some pointers on batting. He even went so far as| to uniform and equip, at his own expense, a boys’ nine in Brooklyn. No National league player was more in demand as a speaker—nor any more willing to oblige. O'Doul was always ready to talk if the subject was baseball. In Japan, only Babe Ruth enjoys greater popular- ity. In San Francisco he is second to none.
