It you doubt it here is a story about a 20-year-old iad who pald ‘his own railroad fare from Nokomis, Ill, to $t. Louls, Mo, and four years later smashed a record that had been in bascball hooks for 32 years. James Leroy Bottomley startled the bascball sphére on Tuesday, Sept 16, by driving in 12 runs against the Brooklyn Superbas. Bottomley is the 20-year-old youth who wag so insist- ent upon having a major league manager seo him "crash the apple” that he paid his expenses from his home town to a big league hill and plate. During the closing days of the 919 season Scout Charley Barrett of the St. Louis Cardinals had been flooded with letters from Bottomley who insisted that he was good enough for the professional circuit. Plenty of Confidence, Bottomley's baseball experience had been as a semi-pro around the mining towns of southern Illinols, If you're as good as you say you are,” wrote Barrett, “come over and let us take a look at you.” That was all Bottomley needed. He caught the next train and intro- duced himself to Scout Barrett and Manager Branch Rickey. “I'll take this kid on my hands” Barrett remarked to Rickey and in 1920 Bottomley was the first base- man for Mitchell in the Dakota League. He batted .312 in 97 games, In 1921 he was with Houston, A sore knee handicapped him all sum- mer and he averaged but .227 in 1921, ‘Record Stood Yor 32 Years. Bottomley continued to advance and.when had an average of .348 with Syracuse in' 1922 he was brought back to the Cardinals, bat- ting .325 in 37 games in closing the National ‘League season, while fo 1923 he became what he said he was—a fence buster and averaged 371 in 134 games, The record made by Bottomiey of driving in 12 runs over the plate was unique in several ways. In the first place Wilbert Robinson was the one who drive In 11 runs for Balti- more in 1892 and Wilbert Robinson sat on the Brooklyn bench when his remarkable record was shattered. It probably will be 32 more years before anybody knocks in 13 runs in a single game. When the ninth Inning closed Unele Robby prgbably heayed s sigh. Part of his record of 1892 re- maihed iIntact—he made seven hits in his game while Bottomley could not touch it as he was up but six times, But where Bottomley totaled 13 bases with his six hits Rebby only touched eight, getting only a double for his extra base collection.
