Text | [from an interview of Harry Shafer by Ren Mulford] George Wright was the greatest short stop the world ever saw. He made plays that were simply marvelous—plays that are not deemed possible now. Ward, in his book, makes the mistake of claiming that Wright played a short field. He is wrong. I've seen George Wright cover more ground than any one in that position attempts to do now. The ball was lively and a tap sent it out like a shot. |
