BASEBALL SPORT OF FIGURES
Man in Oshkosh, Who Has Never Seen
Player, Knows All About Him by
Studying Averages.
One reason for baseball's.wide ap-
peal Is that the game is easily reduced
to figures. A man in Oshkosh, who
has never seen the Giants or Yankees
play, may know as much about them,
and more, too, perhaps, simply by
studying the averages of the players,
One doesn’t have to see a man play to
know that he is a great player. They
can know that by looking over their
batting and fielding averages. No oth-
er sport offers such opportunity for
wathematical revelry.
