THE Red Sox have a fairly
Il strong pitching staff, but the
team lacks power at the plate and
blows many games by one-run mar
gins. One week last spring the
club won five games in a row and
five starting pitchers went the
route. The team was on top for
moment in 1880, but gradually
fell away and landed in the cellar
for keeps.
