Paschal, a swift, hard-hitting outfielder, could have been a regular for any team except the one he was on: the Yankees of the late 1920s with Ruth, Combs, and Meusel. He once pinch hit for Ruth. The Babe had homered in the ninth inning and headed for the clubhouse. The Yankees batted around, and Ruth was nowhere to be found, so Paschal pinch hit for him. (NLM)
