THE NEW YORK TIMES, Michigan, July 23, 1923
* Walter Johnson's 3,000th strikeout
* Babe Ruth
This 28 page newspaper has one column headings on page 9:
"SENATORS TRIUMPH OVER INDIANS, 3-1"
"Johnson Effective and Washington Captures Deciding Game of Series"
with box scores. (see) Though not mentioned here, this was the game that Walter Johnson became the first Major League pitcher to reach 3,000 career strikeouts. Maybe it wasn't reported because no one else had ever done it before and no record was broken to be mentioned ?
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete, light browning with some margin wear and chipping with a little unrelated text loss. Should be handled with care.
