Kid Elberfeld Time Line - June 17, 1906 The Washington Post(Washington, D.C.)

Lajoi Forges to the Front

The Brown's pair of beauty hitters, Stone and Hemphill, have been augmented by Pitcher Smith. Detroit has a lonely slugger in Cobb, whose fielding prevents the lad from being one of the greatest young ball players. Davy Jones plays rings around "Corn" in the field, but the boy has him beat batting. New York has the leader, Elberfeld,, McGuire, Chase, and Yeager, in the 300 company. Keeler is just below the mark. Chase is the only regular above the mark at present with the "Yellow Kid" out.

Note: Who is the "Yellow Kid?"

Ellberfeld, New York 40 G, 135 AB, 33 R, 52 H, 4 SH, 7 SB, 385 Pct.
