There is not a doubt in the world that he would break all the records ever made in this line by the Cobbs, Collinses, Beschers and Milans if he got on base as often as did these men when they were achieving records that now adorn the books. As it is, Maisel will undow tediy finish the season with the best base mealing record of any major leaguer this year, Any player who can steal sixty-two bases in 133 games when his batting average is aw below 300 is sure some deer on - paths, There is no telling what ‘k he would attain if he were a Hitter of the type of Speaker, Baker and others, He'd no doubt put the mark so high that players would shoot at it before they approached | Then another thing must be consid- ered.
