His de sire was to shine as an infleider, and he plaved shortstop until an accident le¢ft - his team without a catcher one day. Without any previous experi cenee Sullivan was put in'to cateh, and found it waz his natural position. His work bhehind the bhat for that high school feam atiracted the attention of the local town team’s mancager and he was made 18 regular cateher Afterward he caught for the independent team in Edgoewater, Wis U to 1887 Bullivan was unheard of wxeent in his own part of Wisconsin, but in that year Joe Cantillon, now manager of the Washington team, signed the youngster for the Dubugue clah. of which Joe then was manager _ Cantillon did not keep Sullivan long ‘for in the following vear, 1808 he wus drafted to the Columbus ciub. of the then Western league, and when that franchise was transferred - to Grand Rapihis Sullivan went along with ft.

Joss can . work about 35 games in a season. Young is good for as many more. Between them they labored in 68 last - season, but “Cy” lost some chances in the spring. because he had a bad ankle. Now, here's the dope: Young's winning percéntage last year was 656, while Joss compiled 686, . Between them they averaged .670. The | pennant was ‘won by Detroit with a i percentage of .588. These two pitchers alone stand almost 100 points in advance of the pennant. If each can repeat his winnings in 1909 the club . will have half the number of victories | necessary to land the pennant on last ' season’s basis. But the dope is even | better than that, for Young should - take more games than last year, be ! cause he is with a club that will | make a bettar showing than Boston . did. I there is any kind of assistance | from the other pitchers, and if Young i and Joss do as well as can be expected reasonably, there isn't going to be so much to this race after all. Of course this is merely dope. That's ‘the way it works out when you stop tothigk jtover, .+ = = - o
