Calhoun Out for Next 12 Months

WASHINGTON, DC. July 28, 1916 - The season, and maybe next, is apparently over for Eli Calhoun. The Washington Grays medical staff informed the club that the second baseman will be out at least 12 months with torn ankle ligaments. Calhoun was hurt in the game against Cleveland while running the bases. The doctors said he may not even recover by the end of next season.

So far this year Calhoun was hitting .341 with 1 home run.

This is devastating news for baseball fans. A few weeks ago, we published an article about Calhoun's contract extension, but also mentioned how good he is for baseball. This is a sad day for the United Baseball Association. We wish Calhoun the best of luck in recovering.
