He is also a fast runner. Smith won the trophy down there for the best all-around man in the league. Milton Stock got back into the first game on account of the left- handed variety of pitching, and made a good bid for holding the Job as @ regular thing, He cracked every ball on the nose and came up with two inpeld plays that were corkera, T' ih not as experienced, Stock ia much faster than Grant.
