CLIFFORD 'SCOT' CAMPBELL
1872 was a down season for Mr. Campbell. He signed on with the Middletown Mansfields and saw his season shortened twice - once by a hyperextended elbow injury which shelved him for six weeks, and again when the Mansfields folded on August 9th after a 4-2 loss to the Eckford Club dropped their record to 7-17 on the season. After hitting .192, Mr. Campbell will attempt to bounce back elsewhere in '73.

CAVETANO BLANCO
The Cuban pitcher plied his trade with the Troy Haymaker Club in 1872. Unfortunately for Blanco, the team behind him was not very good, though he did an admirable job out of the pitcher's box. He won 9 of 25 games and his ERA was 2.98, allowing 278 hits in 217 and two-thirds innings pitched.

ARTURO VILLANUEVA
Blanco's Cuban compadre, shortstop Arturo Villanueva also played for the Troy Club in his first season of 1872. Like Blanco, Villanueva had a solid debut, posting a batting average of .276 for the Haymaker Club (far behind Ernie Beall's .402 which led the team). With 27 hits in 98 at-bats, Villanueva averaged better than a hit per game (the team played 25 contests). He also banged out four two-baggers. Villanueva was impressive afield, though his speed was mitigated by his inexperience as he was thrown out on 3 of his 5 stolen-base attempts.
