The Greatest Play
By WILBUR GOOBE.
Central Figure In the Recent Sensational

Of course I haven't been, in fast
company long enough to tell much
about great plays, maybe not longj
enough to pretend to judge which are
really w great. But I saw one in Balti
xiore last season which I believe was
tie greatest ever at least the great
eat I ever witnessed.
The play was made en the Rocb.es
r grounds and by Jimmy Slagle. TbA

plays but perhaps never one under,

when we were fighting to keep up.
close to the lead ami to hold Roches-!
ttr down a bit Slagle was playing'
great ball for us. You all know how
fast the Rabbit was and still is.j
Well, he was playing center and the
game was close and exciting. There
ira a lot of work for our outfield, as
the Rochester bunch kept slamming
away at our pitcher and mostly hit
ting long flies to the outfield.
The character of the grounds them
selves must be taken into considera
tion. The grounds aro rather strange

and tD make the outfield level part of
sf hillside was scraped down, leaving
a terrace around the field, which in
some spots is sir feet higher than
tie field Itself.
Late in the game, with one out, it
looked as if Rochester was going to
win, although we had a run to the
good and were fighting hard to hold
kem back. They got Tunners on
first and second before anyone was
out, and Slagle came tearing forward
and scooped a low line hit, holding
the runners on tiieir bases. That
made things look a little more com
fortable until the next batter raised
the ball bJgh and far to left center.
Slagle had been playing deep, expect
ing a long fly, or at least to prevent
a long hit from going through and
beating. us right there. The ball went
high and on the line. There 'was a

row of carriages and autos on the
terrace. The runners held their bases
an instant, saw that the ball was go
ing far up on top of the terrace, and
believing no one could reach it, they
both started for the plate.
Slagle went scooting out as fast as
he could tear. He leaped, put one foot
against the side of the embankment
and leaped again, shooting himself
upward and landing on top of the ter
race. The ball was going over and
straight at a big red automobile. I
remember the women in the machine
screeched and dodged. Just then
Slagle came bounding up onto the
terrace, "leaped again, stuck up both
hands and grabbed that ball. The
roar of the crowd warned the runners
and they turned back. Slagle ran to
the edge of the bank, shot the ball in,
and although the runner got back to
first, the one returning to second was
doubled and the game was saved.
