IS WINNING PITCHER AT 40

Joe McGinnrty, Famous “Iron Man” of Giants, Will Play With Vancouver • This Season. Although he has passed his fortieth milestone, Joe McGlnnlty Is still pitching—and pitching winning ball at that. The once famous “Iron Man,” who helped to win two National league pennants and a world’s championship for John Joseph McGraw and the

Giants, is now a member of the Vancouver club of the Pacific Coast International league. McGinnity has lost most of his speed of former days, but his good control and deceptive underhand ball still enable him to fool the minor Jeague batters. The “Iron Man” was one of the leading pitchers in the Pacific Coast International league last season. He won nine games and lost two for a percentage of .818.
