Washington Senators poised to challenge for pennant again
The 1934 Washington Senators resemble a near replica of the 1933 pennant winners. Manager Joe Cronin expects a strong season with Cecil Travis at third base and Elmer Klump joining the catching corps. Pitching depth features Crowder Whitehill Stewart and Weaver with Jack Russell as a key reliever. The outfield trio Heinie Manush Fred Schulte Jonathon Stone combines power with speed, while infield stars Kuhel Myer Cronin and Bruege anchor the defense. The youthful supporting cast adds depth as Cronin believes the team can contend for 934 honors.
