He fs 6 feet in helght and ighs 210) pounds, His first professional engage- ment was with the Canton (Ohio) team in the Tri-State League, and his later engagements were: Cleveland (Natlon- is), 1890-1898; St. Louis (Natlonals), | 1898-1900; Boston (Americans), 1901-1908, In 197 Young pitched his first no-hit game for Cleveland against Cincinnati, and in May, 194, ho performed the | earne feat for Boston against the C: YOUNG'S feat tn shutting out the!

Many people suppose that Cy is the real handle to Young's name, but It is a baseball cog- | nomen given hin when he frst came to the old Cleveland Spiders back in 1840, the name on him immediate when his Rube appearance tacked It is a curious thing that in his nine- teen ‘ears of service in the major | league Y has played with out | three leveland and St. Louls | in the National and Boston m the American League Another pecullar thing about his con- ection with big league baseball is the he and Lou Cr $ catoher, Sriger jo.ned the } and has been have hung together.
