Thomas, a left hander, is one of those mighty rare southpaws with control. He has been pitching high-class ball for Seattle ever since his arrival here. He won a 13-inning game from Oakland here Thursday and turned back the Vernon Tigers, 2 to °0, Sunday, the first time that Seattle has shut out Vernon this year. Thomas is from the American Asgociation, where he pitched for the Min- neapolis club for several seasons. He js known as an iron man in the East. When the war battles were being fought Thomas was in the service and fought in the Argonne. He is one of the real war veterans of baseball. He wears a belt which he found in the Argonne woods. Thomas is a fine fellow to have on a ball dub, as he plays the game for the game's sake. He has won his niche in Coast League baseball and a home with the | fans here by ene non +!
