Rube Marquard Seen as Dimmed Idol by Gotham Fans
Rube Marquard faces criticism from New York fans as his off season antics and salary demands cloud his image. Citations point to a downturn in performance after 19 consecutive losses, with 20 games producing 7 wins and 13 losses, a poor pace for a pitcher once hailed as a 1000-hurling star, while playing at the Orpheum and citing foot slits as the season’s fault. Joe Wood, the World Series star, has returned his contract to Boston.
