On July 17, 1924, Haines shut out the Boston Nationals, hitless and runless, the only no-hit game of that season in the hig show. . . . Jess started with the Cardinals in 1920, but prior to that he had been a Detroit farm hand in 1915 and 16 and was tried out by the Cincy Reds in 1918, . .. | [He won 21 games and lost five with Kansas City in 1919 and the Cardinals snatched him. The peak of this veteran's career undoubtedly was the third struggle of the 1926 World Series in which the Cards eventually beat the Yankees. .
