How Bill Got In.
Up until this season Wingo had
been doing practically all the catch
ing for the Redlegs, but the requisi.
ton of Billy Rariden by Pat Moran
last spring ightened Ivy's load. They
have run about even on work and be-
tween them they have given Moran
everything he could ask for from the
catching department.
Bill is the second member of Pat
Moran's famous Il want to be home"
battery Moran obtained Rariden in
practically the same way that he got
Slim Sallee. Sallee retired from the
big show so he could stay at his home
in Higginsport, Ohio. Pat signed him
up after pointing out TO him that he
could get home every night while the
team was in Cinciville.
Rariden welcomed a trade to Gin
cinnau from the Giants so he could
on off days and rainy ones.
Rariden has been in the big show
since 1910, when he graduated to the
Braves from Canton, Ohio. In 1914,
when the Federal league sprang up.
Bill jumped to Indianapolis. When the
peace pact was signed Bill was sold
to the Giants by the Fed owners for
the reported sale price of $500.

the many reasons why the Reds are
where they are.
Control has been the predominating
factor in the excellent pitching of Sal

the veterans, Wingo and Rariden be-

Wineo's History.
This is Wingo's fifth season with
the Redlegs. He went to the city
