This isn't a card and maybe not so valuable, but I was happy to pick it up. Page from a Providence newspaper featuring an amazing pitching duel. Not sure why the famous (infamous) Lefty Williams is called "Cy". The game was played in less than three hours! Johnson had a big hit in the 18th to contribute to the lone run. At the bottom of the page is a small article about how the White Sox are missing Joe Jackson's bat. WWI was ongoing and Jackson was working in a shipyard to avoid the draft. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...91805150.shtml
