In his first season McNally partic-
ipated in 23 games, batted for .151
and fielded for .Sel, an unpromisIng
record. The next year he saw serv-
ice in 81 contests, batted 20 points
better and gained 73 points in field
ing. He was doing a little better.
The year 1917 saw him reach the
800 class as a hitter, his name ap-
pearing in As box scores.
When he returned from the war
the Red Sox found room for him and
he had some part in SO games in 1919,
hitting for 1852. His longest season
came the next year, when he partic-
ipRted in SO contests, batted for
.2b6 and fielded for $50.
McNally again became a substitute
