 | August's Top Hurler is Ivory Saturday, September 1st , 1917 In August when the Rochester manager wrote the name "Ivory" on the lineup card, he knew he had a good shot at winning. Start after start in the month, Jim Ivory took the hill, took charge and usually got the win. He dominated with a 7-2 mark and 2.50 ERA in 9 starts. The gifted Millers star pitched 72 innings, fanned 31 and held opposing teams to a .260 average. For his outstanding mound performance Ivory was named the EA Pitcher of the Month by the baseball writers. This year, Ivory has a 27-9 record and a 2.21 ERA. |   |
