Cobb liked Hale because he could hit, but Hale's fielding was the first big worry of the new manager. Hale's hands anything but sure. He played ground-hit bails badly and he fumbled more frequently than not. Finally Cobb decided that Hale waa unable to field because the glove he wore was too small. He tried to induce Hale to adopt a large, loose-fitting fielder's glove, but Balfl stuck to his little brown one, claiming that jt felt more comfortable.

Hale did not change his fielding failed to improve and Detroit released him soon after the start of the season.
