“CAP” ANSON BOWS TO MANAGER LEE FOHL
VETERAN SAYS INDIAN LEADER KNOWS PITCHERS. “What I like about Fohl.” says Cap Anson, “is that he Is hot afraid to call upon a young pitcher. When I sized up the Cleveland pitching staff at the start of the season I did not think my friend Jim Dunn had a chance, but I was fooled by Fohl, who has made winning pitchers out of Coveleskle, Bagby and Klepfer. “But think of what he did a few days ago. There he was up against the leaders of the league. The game jdecided the possession of first place and he had the nerve to send a kid, this boy Gould, to the hill against such n crack nitcher as Fisher. And he came through, which makes me take off my hat to Mr. Lee Fohl.”
