Tlie luckiest pitchert iu the big
leagues!
This statement covers some terri
diary, but if there is a luckier player in
baseball than Al Demaree he. hasn‘t
made himself known to date.
Dentures got his first real start in
professional baseball in the Southern
League “with Memphis, and “he came to
the Giants in time to participate in the
laser's world's series of 1913, In
world‘s’ series of 1913, cutting the
loser's end of the pit 'ivith the mcn‘ibers
'of McGraws team that year. In 1915
31c ‘was with the Phillies when they
_ .copped the flag, and once again Re fig-
ured as a member of the pie cutting
fraternity, though for a second time he
,‘took the laser’s share of the gravy.
Soft. Well, Rather.
When Pat Moran traded Demaree to
the Cubs for Jimmy Lavender, the
prospect of his horning into any more
world’s series was mighty slim, but
just because he is a lucky bail player,
Al managed to figure in a deal that
brought. him back to the New York
club and sent little Peter Kiiduff to
the cubs. '
And now Steamer Al. the cartrum
ist pitcher, is about to share the spoils
of what promises to be a history-mak-
ing seriesthis full. Soft? Well, rath-
.er. . .

decidedly lucky, for since returning to

roster, and ‘McGrpw thinks well enough!”

‘ pretty smart pitcher. Ile 111111 always
had the reputation as a twiricr with a

to the Phillies he was getting big
