NAGLE EXPECTED TO
PROVE HEW PFIESTERi
Promising Southpaw Comes
to Cubs to Prove McGraw Erred in Dropping Him.
Three years ago, when Jack Pfiester
and Floyd Kroh- were doing business for the Cubs, the general opinion was
that Manager Chance was well supplied with left-handed pitchers. Jack was great against New York and good against St. Louis. Floyd could almost
be depended .upon to kick Boston regularly. But Pfiester suddenly lost his effect
iveness and Floyd's good sense went
astray about the same time. Bill Fox-
en was captured in Philadelphia, but
Bin didnt last long. It thua happened that, almost at the beginning of the 1911 season. Manager Chance found himself without a southpaw of any kind. He announced that he would get
aiong . wunout the breed and branded I
tne whole tribe as unreliable and un
desirable.
Notwithstanding the outburst of the
r. im, ne Knew down in his. heart that
lert-nanded pitchers, good ones, had
meir value, and there were times last
season when he could have used one or
two to great advantage.
