Show REGRET PASSING OF CRUISE St. Louis Fans Sorry to See Outfielder Go to Boston Had Sprung Charley Horse. Many St. Louis fans will regret the passing of Walter Cruise from the Cardinals Car-dinals to Boston ns Wally has played great ball from time to time, especially in 1917, when he led the league in hitting hit-ting for several months. Miller Huggins picked up Cruise in the spring of 1914, while the Cardinals were training in Jacksonville, Fla. Wally was with the Jacksonville club at that time and made such an Impression Impres-sion on Hug that he brought the outfielder out-fielder home with him. Wally failed fo stick, Huggins sending him to St. Paul. Cruise made good there and was recalled. He sprung a charley horse this spring and has not been at his best. |
