Item description from seller

Paperback. St. Louis - Sportsman's Park - April 5 1930 Office of Philip De Catesby Ball - 65 - Owner of the St. Louis Browns - American League The door to the cozy office opened and Jane Moore (62) Mister Ball's secretary of 40 years announced, "Mr. Ball, your two o'clock appointment is here." William Flynn (45) strolled into the office and walked over to the awards wall which contained oil paintings of George Sisler, Ken Williams, Jack Tobin, and Baby Doll Jacobson and a photograph of the 1922 St. Louie team. Flynn turned to Ball (65) and said, "You almost won it that year." "How can I help you Mister Flynn." "Mister Ball I represent an acquaintance of yours, Mister Edward Hogan." "Yes, I'm well acquainted with Jellyroll, what does he want?" "His nephew, Tommy Cahill, would like to play third base for the Browns." "Why?" "I don't know, I told him he would be better off playing for the Cardinals. At least they have a chance of winning the pennant." "No, not why he'd want to play for the Browns. Why would you think I would add a nobody player to my professional baseball team?" Flynn looked into Ball's eyes, "I'll give you two good reasons. One; the Browns are predicted to come in last place in the American League and last in attendance this year. So putting Tommy at third base for this team doesn't make much difference. Second: associates of Mister Hogan will make it very difficult for your family members and you to see the end of the season. Do I make myself clear?" Ball wiped the sweat from his brow and smiled, "I guess we have a new third baseman." This item is printed on demand.
