About the Player
Ty Cobb says: “Few fans realize that Bill Donovan, once the star with the Detroit club, and now the manager of a minor league team, that of Providence, pitched the last two years he was with the Tigers with his arm paining him every time he made a move to throw the ball. 'Wild Bill ' would wince with each delivery toward the end of a hard game in those days, yet he had more stuff than ever. Bill hurt the wing one day, and it never came back to its true shape. Still, he did not admit its condition to Jennings or any of the players on the team until he could no longer conceal his suffering from the watchful gaze of Jennings.”
