Text | [reporting on the AA meeting] Just before the adjournment Simmons, Philadelphia, arose and asked if any of the Association Clubs proposed to play the Detroits, if Troy, who deserted their team, remained with that nine. Manager Bancroft, of Detroit, who was present, made a statement to the effect that the President of their Club, who had signed Troy, did not know the circumstances of the case. He acknowledged that he had made a mistake, and proposed to let Troy go. He, however, wanted to keep his word wit that player, and he would release him if the Athletics would hire him. This Simmons said he could not do, still Bancroft says he will not play. |
