NAPOLEON LOJOIE, THE FAMOUS
BASEBALL PLAYER WILL BE
INTERESTING SUBJECT.
E
(By United Press.) ' "
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 28. Ball
players will come and go thousands
of them and the wdrld wlllr forget
most of them as 'quickly as their
names cease to appear in- the ' box
scores, but the names of two players
who are about to pass . out of the
sport as active participants will live
as long as the National pastime it
self. v..
The names of Napoleon Lajoie, fa
mous Cleveland second baseman, and
Hans Wagner, equally famous Pitts
burg shortstop, have been written in
letters of fire on the walls of base
ball's hall of fame. After nearly 20
years these Launcelot s of the dia
mond are slowing up and soon must
give way to younger men.
Napoleon Lajoie first gained fame
on the lots of Weensocket, R. I. His
fielding and hitting ability excited
the admiration of a scout of the Fall
River, Mass. team who happened
along one day. Lajoie signed a Fall
River contract and preceeded imme
diately to make good. Billy Nash
Philadelphia National League man
ager saw the young Frenchman per
form one August day and purchased
his release. He was assigned to first
base and played the position amazing
ly well. His batting for the first
year in fast company was .328.
Previously Lajoie had been a hack
driver. In one year the Rhode Is-
land hackdriver rose from obscurity
to fame. Lajoie was shifted from
first base to second, where his field
1ng was so spectacular that he soon
became known as the King of second
basemen. His graceful and apparent
ly careless manner of fielding the
ball, caused him to be acknowledged
the most finished fielder the game
had ever known,
In 1901 Lajoie Jumped from the
Philadelphia Nationals to ..the Ath
letics and was transferred to Cleve-
ad in 1902. He led the National
tgue in batting in his last year
with that organization with a mark
of .422. He led the American League
"jne -rea wb' American league witn
.391 and the following year with .329
. Lajoie's coming to Cleveland with
Bill Bernhard and Elmer Flick, who
had also jumped the National League
converted Cleveland from a dead
baseball town into a live one. The
Cleveland club was named the "Naps
after Lajoie and he became the idol
of Cleveland fandom. Lajoie has bat
ted over .300 in all but three of his
nineteen seasons in the major league
He swatted .299 in 1907 and .289 in
1908. He probably will hit under
.250 this season
J This great player's sudden slump is
a baseball mystery. Few players ever
lose their batting eyes as suddenly as
has Lajoie. He can offer no explana
tion. "It's just one of these things
that happens,"- he says. Lajoie s field
Ihg Is still brilliant but he cannot
cover as much territory as a few
years ago. He has also slowed up on
the oases.
- However, Lajoie should worry,
When he passes out of baseball he
will not be required to resume his
youthful occupation of hack driving
He is rich. He is worth no less than
$200,000. He has a valuable farm
and a fine home in a Cleveland su
burb. Lajoie will be thirty-nine in
September.
Hans Wagner, of the Pires, has not
slumped as badly in his hitting this
year as Lajoie, but he has slowed up
noticeably in all departments of the
game.
This is Wagner's eighteenth year
as a major league player. He made
his debut with the Louisville club of
the old National League a year after
Lajoie joined the Phillies,
v. "Wagner ed the National League
eight seasons. He averaged .340 in
cluding this season. Lajoie has aver
aged about .343 in his nineteen years
of major league playing.
'Both Pittsburg and Cleveland are
greatly affected by the slumps of
these star players. It is significant
that the Pirates and Naps both drop
ed to last place the first year their
great stars showed signs of fading.
