MANAGERS’ WAYS ARE QUEER
Leader of Cincinnati Rede Was Quick
to Grab Up Tommy Leach, Re-
leased by Chicago Cubs.
The ways of baseball managers, ai
times, are strange, strange ways. The
case of Roger Bresnahan, who man
ages the Cubs, is a fair example
oger, who owned a ball plare
named Tommy Leach, discovered »
short time ago that he would have no
need for the veteran's services during
1915. At the same time Charles Herzog
who manages the Cincinnati Reds, dis
covered that he needed a veteran ball
player, and he decided that Tommy
Leach was the very ball player that he
wanted to get.
“I'd like to get Leach from the Cubs
and if some deal can be made Leach
will wear a Cincinnati uniform in
1916." sald Herzog
Did Bresnahan immediately arrange
a trade with Herzog for Leach? Did
Tommy Leach.
he sell Leach to Herzog and add a few
thousand shekels to the bank account
of the Cubs? No, Bresnahan didn’t
He just released Leach outright,
whereupon Herzog signed him up.
In other words, Herzog got Leach
for nothing. aithough he had publicly
announced that he was willing to give
cash or promising players to the Cubs
for Leach.
“Doc” Cook's Ambition.

appointed if his 1916 batting mark
falls below the 300 mark 1s “Doc”
Cook. “Doc” got away to the poorest
kind ot a start last season and the sea

shaken the malaria out of his system.
Even under this handicap he was
knocking at the door of 300 when the
season ended.
