Gossip of the Indians

BY EDDIE ASH JOHNNY KRONER, rookie third packer with the Indians, has had bad luck since coming up from the south. He was taken ill last Monday and has been confined to

local baseball history. The men of McCann knocked off the Cincinnati Reds at Perry stadium Thursday, 8 to 2, giving the locals five consecutive victories, three from Toronto and one from the Yankees, preceding the triumph over the Queen City nine. Moreover. Pilot McCann produced another nine-inning pitcher in Leslie Barnhart, who let the Reds down with seven hits. He was opposed by Si Johnson, who is slated to hurl the opening game for the Reds against the Chicago Cubs Tuesday. Les Hard to Hit Barnhart issued six passes, but he had plenty of stuff during the mel?e and prevented the big leaguers from bunching blows. Johnson received terrible support, but would have lost anyway owing to a vU.ent attack launched by the Indians in the eighth. Johnson fanned three and issued no walks. The Tribe righthander also struck out three. The teams were scheduled to engage in another conflict this afternoon at 2:30 and on Saturday and Sunday the Chicago White Sox will invade the stadium to tackle the hustling Hoosier machine. Johnny Cooney or Berly Horne was billed to face the Reds on the mound today. Hale Makes Circuit The outstanding feature Thursday was the home run inside the park by Sammy Hale in the fifth stanza. Wingard opened the inning with a double and Barnhart and Goldman skied. Purdy reached first on Gilbert’s error and Hale lined the sphere to center and the ball bounced over Douthit’s .head and rolled to the flag pole. It was the first inside homer at the new park. The Indians raked Johnson in the eighth. Hale led off with a single, Angley tripled and Fitzgerald went all the way to second on Durocher s low throw, Angley scoring. Rosenberg popped out, but Sigafoos came through with a triple, scoring Fitzgerald and Sigafoos scored on Wingard’s deep fly to Douthit.

foos at recond came as a pleasant sur* prise to the club chiefs. He had six assists and two putouts and took part in Iwo double plays. Goldman contributed sparkling stops on hard hit balls to hold down the attack. GOLDMAN, Hale and Angley each collected two hits. Extra base swats compiled by the Indians were triples by Angley and Sigafoos, a circuit clout by Hale and doubles by Angley, Purdy and Wingard.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

JONAH (GOLDIE) GOLDMAN, the young man whose ninth-inning single with three on and two down drove in the tally which gave Emmet McCann’s Indians a 12 to 11 triumph over the Yankees Wednesday, has been chasing around over the diamond for several years. The stocky shortstop started his baseball career at Erasmus Hall high school, Brooklyn, known as a baseball incubator. Waite Holt and other big league pastimers got their start there. Goldie starred there on the diamond and gridiron. He continued his athletic prowess at Syracuse university, where he did a high-powered job of fullbacking for the grid eleven. In 1926. when Syracuse was battling an old rival, Colgate, and the score was tied 13 to 13 near the end of the game, Goldman was delegated to kick the point after touchdown. The teams lined up. The packed stands were in an uproar. Goldman swung his leg. the beef? Colgate line charged through and he missed the uprights for the all-important victory point. However, despite that miss, Jonah gained a lot of ground for Syracuse and was an outstanding wearer of the cleated shoe. Goldie went from Syracuse to the Cleveland Indians. They farmed him to Decatur and then to Albany. Recalled by Cleveland, he stayed two with Roger Peckinpaugh’s club and then joined Indianapolis last season. With Albany in 1929, Goldie established a brilliant fielding mark by averaging six assists per game and participating in 127 of the 207 double plays executed by that club during the season. Goldman’s brilliant defensive skill helped Albany to the Eastern League pennant. Jonah’s hobby is handball and he challenges local handball stars to test his skill at the indoor game. In addition to his game-winning single Wednesday, Goldie also banged out two doubles in his first two trips to the rubber against the Yankees. Moreover, on Thursday he turned in a bang-up defensive game against the Cincy Reds and hit safely in four tries.
