Text | [from Joe Pritchard's column][from an interview of Ezra Sutton] T”he Rochester Club has no claim on my services whatever,” said Sutton, “or I would never have signed with the Milwaukee people. Manager Leonard, of the Rochester Club has me on his reserve list, but that cuts no figure. When I signed with the Rochester Club last year I promised them that I would give them the first chance at my services for next season, as they well knew that my contract was a conditional one, and that condition was that I was not to be reserved by them, and if I so desired I could show you right here in black and what a letter from President Rhinehardt which talks for itself. I will play with Milwaukee next season—Leonard or no Leonard—and if my name is not taken off the reserve list of the Rochester Club I will bring the matter before the Arbitration Committee, and the papers that I have in my possession will only have to be looked over by the committee when a decision will be given in my favor. |
