...Stiles, a raw recruit, at third, will make up a stonewall infield; and Osborne, though inexperienced, is a demon with the willow, and will cover the initial bag in Daubert fashion. Veterans Smith, Brown, and Morris will form the slugging outfield trio. "Steamship" Hall, the peerless arterial twirler, will appear on the slab with Reynolds, another old timer, at the receiving end.
