'In 1904 he was a member of Johnny Greene's Highlanders. The ball park was located in what is now known as Greene's addition.
In 1905 interest in baseball was at an all-time high in the Tri-Towns and a team was organized to play in the Pennsylvania, Ohio and Maryland league, commonly referred to as P. O. M. A new park was erected on the island. It included the present park and adjoining land, now the site of homes on Maryland Avenue.
A young fast ball pitcher was acquired by the team and he pitched the Piedmont team to a league victory that year. His name was Nick Maddox. Later he was acquired by the Pittsburgh Pirates and pitched for Detroit in the World Series. Maddox died at his home in Pittsburgh about a year ago. Piedmont had two catchers in 1905, Johnny Ament and George Dailey. George was the outstanding catcher of the team and recognized as one of the best in the league. He was always paired with Nick Maddox and it was music to the fans' ears to hear the umpire announce: "Batteries for today's game, Maddox and Dailey...."
In 1906 he played with Springfield in the Central League and in 1907 with Butler and Charleroi. In 1909 he went to Memphis, Tenn and the following year played with Goldsboro, N. C. He concluded his career in professional baseball with Winston-Salem when he was struck in the hand with pitched ball in 1912.
George's ability to peg to second and to catch fouls before they hit the grandstand wire won for him high praise here in 1905. He was one of the few remaining members of a great local team"
