Beck to Reds signals bigger trade for Boston Hops
The sale of Beck to Cincinnati signals a forthcoming deal that Boston manager Fred Tenney expects will greatly benefit the Hops. Beck’s .275 season average hides his 32 strikeouts and only one stolen base, plus limited batting impact. Boston anticipates a profitable return once the Reds trade a more valuable asset, with Vice-President Page proposing a new base running statistic to better reflect running performance.
