In five years with the Philadelphia Athletics, "Wally" Moses has never failed to hit .300 or better. He is still with the Athletics today as a result of a cancellation of a trade with the Detroit Tigers and Connie Mack is not unhappy over that. Moses, who batted .307 last year, figures prominently in Mack's plans for a drive on the first division this year. "Wally's" five-year major league mark is .321. He is a timely, long hitter and a good fielder.
George W. Perring, shortstop of the Kansas City Federal League Club, was born at Sharon, Wis., on August 13, 1884. He entered Beloit, Wis., College, and left there in 1905 to join the Beloit Club of the Wisconsin State League. Beloit sold Perring to Omaha, of the Western League, at the end of 1905, and he played with Ömaha in 1906. Omaha sold him to Cleveland American League Club in 1906, but that club farmed him to Toledo American Association team in the early part of 1907. He was recalled in 1908, and remained with Cleveland until the latter part of 1910, when he was purchased by Columbus American Association team. He played in Columbus until the spring of 1914, when he jumped to the Kansas City Federals.
