One Honest Ball Player.
Bill Klem says Chief Wilson of the Pittsburgh Pirates, is one of the squarest ball players in the game. He relates an anecdote of a game in Philadelphia when he left a decision to the chief. There- was a question as to whether a long smash was fair or foul, and Dooin protested Klem’s ruling of the latter sort Klem asked Wilson, and the Pirate spoke honestly, though against his own team. Baying it was fair.
