Show LOOKS GOOD FOR JENSEN. Is Successfully Pasalrfg Preliminary Tests for Entrance to Big League. Irving Jensen, the crack Dubel Tailor twlrler who receptly went East to Join the Now York Americans, has been farmed out to the Hudson team of tho New York State league. In his first gamo, pitched a few days ago, ho pitched a strike-out game, much to the delight de-light of Managor Clark Grlfflth of the New York team. Manager Griffith has also taken occasion to give Jensen a workout In his own presence. Griffith, although manager, is a good ball player and a twlrler of no mean ability. Working Work-ing against the same men Jensen scored eight Birlke-outs to Griffith's two. The fact that Jensen has been farmed out to the Hudson team docs not mean that Griffith will not use him or that the Utah boy is to bo sidetracked. This Is tho test method Griffith applies to all his hew men. He is hard after the American pennant and he cannot afTord to try new men In positions where they might lose a game until they have proved their worth. Jensen seems to be proving his worth, and before long he will probably be placed on the rubber for his Initial trial with the big leaguers. |
