FIRST TRIPLE FL’.Y.
Altroek, pitcher down, pnlire-
mun, collider, and at last t la-
hero of a triple play, first of
1921; Washington was phiylng
.against the Phillies, Wrightstone
and Miller were on first and
second liases, .lack Miller of
New Jersey and elsewhere lined
the ball to Altroek. Nick, play-
ing first, grabbed it with one
hand, touched first and threw
to second for the third out. All
that tile Phillies could say was
that when Altroek began to
make triple plays there was
hope for “Cap" Anson to return.
