Bill Terry Drills 3 HR in One Game
Wednesday, April 22nd, 1925
Sometimes your best is just not enough. Bill Terry had an outstanding day at Baker Bowl, when he ripped three home runs. Nonetheless, the Philadelphia Phillies fell to the Brooklyn Robins 10-9.

Terry had a feast at the plate, pounding everything thrown his way. The 26-year-old first baseman banged out 3 hits in 4 at-bats, scored 3 times and batted in 3 runs. Despite his sensational performance, the Phillies were not able to hold off the Robins.

"Baseball is a funny game," Terry said in the post game interview, "You can't dwell on the reasons for the loss. I'm sure there will be days when I go 0-for-4 and we win. These things tend to even out."

Bill Terry hit a solo-shot off Rube Schauer in the 1st, flied out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Rube Schauer in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Ed Hawk in the 9th.

NABL News: Draft Pool Revealed
Saturday, September 12th, 1925
For would-be rookies, a list of whom was announced today by the league, the wait to find out whether or not they have been selected is excruciating. It's tough just getting a scout to notice you, to think you are worth investing an organization's future in. Then draft day arrives and you are snatched up by someone you might not have expected. Some will catch on big; others will be away from home for the first time and will struggle to gain a solid footing in the minors. Still others will battle through, gain that coveted footing and go on to have a solid professional career.

The top players available (in no particular order) seem to be:
1. Tommy Thomas, 25 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
2. Chuck Dressen, 26 year-old third baseman out of college.
3. Joe Cronin, 18 year-old second baseman out of high-school.
4. Ethan Allen, 21 year-old center fielder out of college.
5. Alvin Crowder, 26 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
6. Paul Waner, 22 year-old right fielder out of college.
7. Danny Taylor, 24 year-old right fielder out of college.
8. Sam Gibson, 26 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
9. Cuckoo Christensen, 25 year-old left fielder out of college.
10. Babe Herman, 22 year-old first baseman out of college.

NABL News: Playoffs begin
Monday, October 5th, 1925
Playoff baseball is a being unto itself. It is a mythical creature, a fleeting, mystical force that consumes anyone with a passion for one of the ballclubs vying for championship gold.

Today, the North American BaseBall League gives way to this passion as players, fans and the elite clubs of the league embark on an exciting journey fraught with anguish and ecstasy. Here is the slate for today's games in the North American Series:

1926 NL Batting Title to Bill Terry
Friday, October 1st, 1926
No one hit National League pitching at a better clip than Philadelphia's Bill Terry in 1926. Playing in 138 games this year's batting champ registered a .374 average with 181 hits, 12 home runs and 71 RBIs.

Thrice as Nice: Gehrig Takes Triple Crown
Friday, October 1st, 1926
This season, Lou Gehrig exhibited a rare combination of hitting both for average and power. Indeed, the Cleveland Indians star claimed baseball's Triple Crown, leading the American League in batting average, home runs and RBIs.

"I've always taken pride in my ability to hit the ball," Gehrig said. "But honestly I never thought I'd put up numbers like that."

He led the American League with a .363 BA, 41 home runs and 125 RBIs. The 23-year-old Indians first baseman is the 6th player in North American BaseBall League history to do this rare feat. Quite a year for quite a player.

NABL News: Draft Pool Revealed
Sunday, September 12th, 1926
North American BaseBall League announced the 1926 amateur draft pool today, a scant 30 days in advance of the actual draft. For scouts, it is the toughest challenge of the season, trying to come up with an educated guess as to what a young man in his late teens or early twenties is going to do at the professional level a good five years down the road, at best. Some will go on gut instincts; some will rely on years of experience; but most will find it disconcerting how much their team is beholden to Lady Luck. Choose well and they are geniuses; choose poorly and they are unemployed.

The top players available (in no particular order) seem to be:
1. Carl Reynolds, 23 year-old right fielder out of college.
2. Fred Schulte, 25 year-old center fielder out of college.
3. Bump Hadley, 22 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
4. Danny Taylor, 25 year-old right fielder out of college.
5. Hod Lisenbee, 27 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
6. Lloyd Waner, 20 year-old center fielder out of college.
7. Ernie Orsatti, 24 year-old right fielder out of college.
8. Red Barnes, 21 year-old center fielder out of college.
9. Fred Frankhouse, 22 year-old starting pitcher out of college.
10. Woody English, 20 year-old shortstop out of college.

NABL News: Playoffs begin
Friday, October 1st, 1926
With the playoffs mere hours away, each of the contenders are putting their game faces on. It's time for ballplayers to leave it all on the field. In the North American BaseBall League playoffs, miracles do happen, but most often it's simply the team that plays better baseball that goes home with the prize -- the much-coveted North American Series championship. The North American Series starts today with these games:
Brooklyn Robins versus Cleveland Indians.

Brooklyn topped Cleveland 6-2 today at Ebbets Field to win the North American BaseBall League North American Series. The Robins took the series 4-1.
