Morton Gets No-Hitter Against Philadelphia
Tuesday, April 30th, 1918
Guy Morton relied on excellent pitch selection and pinpoint control to hold Philadelphia hitless in his 2-0 win.

"I stayed ahead of batters," he said after the game, "and was able to get a lot of quick outs. My defense deserves a lot of credit too. They had to be on their toes and they saved me several times."

The 24-year-old starter rung up 3 strikeouts and 3 walks in whipping the Athletics.

"When a guy is throwing strikes the way he was and is locating well, it is going to be a long day for any club," the Philadelphia skipper said.

Washington Senators Ship Crawford to Cleveland
Monday, June 24th, 1918
It won't turn either team into an instant contender or provide a huge franchise shakeup, but the Washington Senators and Cleveland Indians finalized a trade today. Washington will send 19-year-old reliever William Pierson, 38-year-old first baseman Sam Crawford, 27-year-old catcher Walt Alexander and a 1st round draft pick to the Indians, while the Senators will receive 28-year-old first baseman Jack Fournier. "We think this is a deal that will help out both teams and we're glad to get it done," said the Senators general manager). The trade is expected to be officially completed later today with the players to join their new ball clubs by the end of the day.

Crawford on the season is hitting .126 with no home runs. His stats include 5 RBIs and 9 runs scored.

This season Fournier is batting at a .231 clip with no home runs and 4 RBIs.

NABL News: Playoffs begin
Wednesday, October 9th, 1918
Some clubs have coasted to make the playoffs -- others have scrapped tooth and nail to get here. After a long, sometimes seemingly endless regular season, it gets down to who can win a short series -- by hook or crook, talent or luck. That's what it takes to capture the North American BaseBall League championship. The top teams will vie in the North American Series starting today:
Brooklyn Robins versus New York Yankees.

New York Wins 1918 North American Series!
Tuesday, October 15th, 1918
How does it feel to win the North American Series?

"It's strange. Weird," is the way the New York manager put it. "Like it was supposed to happen. Whenever something did happen, it didn't surprise us. We truly believed we would win."

Today at Ebbets Field, New York completed its magical run to the North American Series title with a 5-1 triumph over the Brooklyn Robins. It was the 5th time they have won it all. In the regular season, New York notched a 90-65 mark and took first place in the American League standings. MVP is Edd Rousch (9-23, .391, 3 RBIs.)

And how does it feel to lose the North American Series?

"Your heart is heavy and your stomach is empty" is the way the dejected Brooklyn skipper described it. "It's the lowest of lows, when you lose... and the highest of highs, when you win."

I retire and my son will start out. And will take over Philadelphia Phillies.

Major Retirements
Walt McCredie (Cardinals) 2088 hits, .331 avg. 822 RBIs.
Jake Livingstone (Yankees) 69-81, 99 saves. .274 era.

Awards

Sunday, October 27th, 1918

Pitcher: Earl Moseley (Boston Red Sox)
Catcher: Jack Lapp (Washington Senators)

Glove Wizard Award Winners in NL Announced
Sunday, October 27th, 1918
Great glovemen can range far and wide to make a backhand stop or an over-the-shoulder catch -- and the best usually make it look easy. Today the winners of the National League Glove Wizard Award for 1918 were announced. These awards for defensive excellence go to:

Pitcher: Dutch Ruether (Boston Braves)
Catcher: Verne Clemons (Philadelphia Phillies)
First Baseman: Dick Hoblitzel (Chicago Cubs)

Third Baseman: Tex Wisterzil (Boston Braves)
Shortstop: Rabbit Maranville (Boston Braves)

Center Fielder: Dutch Zwilling (Cincinnati Reds)
Right Fielder: Grover Gilmore (New York Giants)

NL Hands Out Newcomer of the Year Award
Monday, October 28th, 1918
He was a "talented and gifted ballplayer." That the way one BNN writer described the rookie center fielder for Chicago in the article announcing him as the National League Newcomer of the Year Award recipient. Buzz Murphy came on the scene this year and quickly established himself as player to be reckoned with.

The 23-year-old Cubs newcomer took the trophy by hitting .304 in 117 games this season and finished with 127 hits, 4 home runs, 45 RBIs and 54 runs scored.

American League Picks Top Rookie
Monday, October 28th, 1918
The top rookie in the American League was Chicago shortstop Charlie Hollocher. He impressed voters so much that they named him the 1918 Newcomer of the Year Award recipient.

Hollocher put up some pretty fair numbers, including a .271 batting average and .333 on-base percentage, while racking up 2 home runs, 67 RBIs and 79 runs scored.

NL's Top Pitcher is Marquard
Wednesday, October 30th, 1918
This year the National League spotlight fell on Rube Marquard of the Cincinnati Reds. What a 1918 season he had!

A fine 22-13 won-lost record, 1.39 ERA, 39 starts, 355.1 innings and 137 strikeouts -- a season good enough to earn him the NL Outstanding Pitcher Award.

AL Gives Best Pitcher Award
Wednesday, October 30th, 1918
The Outstanding Pitcher Award for 1918 has been presented and the American League winner is Walter Johnson of Washington.

"It's always nice to receive an award like this," said Johnson. "I just hope I can improve on my performance next year and be in the running again," the Senators star told reporters.

Johnson excelled with an impressive 28-16 record in 49 starts. In 444.1 innings he yielded 409 hits and 106 walks, while striking out 216 and compiling a fine 2.35 ERA.

Babe Ruth Captures NL Outstanding Hitter Award
Thursday, October 31st, 1918
Brooklyn's Babe Ruth put the wraps on a fine campaign today by winning the 1918 National League Outstanding Hitter Award.

The 23-year-old veteran scorched the opposition with a .315 average, picking up 187 hits, 23 doubles, 5 triples, 28 home runs and 107 RBIs, while scoring 98 runs.

Cobb Selected AL's Best Hitter
Thursday, October 31st, 1918
What a way to finish off the year -- being honored with the 1918 Outstanding Hitter Award in the American League. It had already been a very special season for Washington's Ty Cobb, but today's announcement really put the icing on his cake.

All season long Ty Cobb gave opposing pitchers fits by hitting .370 as he collected 205 hits, 28 doubles, 12 triples, 4 home runs and 69 RBIs.

Hall of Fame Induction
Service Award
Vinton Among Greats in NABL HOF
Friday, November 1st, 1918
What a way to cap a glorious career -- get elected to the North American BaseBall League Hall of Fame. That's exactly what happened to pitching star, Bill Vinton. The Baseball Writers Association rewarded him for his sensational seasons on the mound and today he took his place among the baseball immortals.

Vinton told the audience at the ceremonies, "Baseball has been my life... and what a wonderful life it has been. The truth is I would have played it for almost nothing... but I wouldn't have told any of the owners that."

Vinton had a career won-loss record of 432 victories and 405 losses with 4223 strikeouts in 7364.2 innings and a 2.87 ERA. He was 41, when he retired from baseball and appeared in 899 games.

Monday, May 5th, 1919
It was a special day at Shibe Park for Washington's Walter Johnson. The Senators ace logged his 300th career win against the Athletics. In the 6-5 decision Johnson tossed 10 innings, surrendered 9 hits with 6 walks and 1 strikeout.

"I'm real fortunate that I had the opportunity to play with such good players during my career," said Johnson. "I just couldn't have drawn it up any better. I'm glad I did it in this uniform, too. Washington is a great organization to play for."

Over his entire career Johnson has worked 4333 innings with 2470 strikeouts en route to a 300-169 record. The 31-year-old also has a 2.40 ERA.

Philadelphia Goes Hitless Against Pfeffer
Friday, July 25th, 1919
The Washington Senators and their fans had a lot to celebrate today as 31-year-old hurler Jeff Pfeffer no-hit the Philadelphia Athletics 7-0 at Griffith Stadium I.

"He mixed his pitches well, hit his spots...and got some help from above," said his pitching coach. "Jeff really took it to another level today."

On his record-setting day Pfeffer had 3 strikeouts and 2 walks.

His manager added, "I don't remember a better pitched game. And how about our defense, too. We played some good 'D' today."
