Geary Deal With Reds Should Help Indians
Seattle manager Bill Klepper trades Bob Geary to Cincinnati for Lynn Brenton and Charlie See plus 10000 dollars contending the move strengthens Seattle’s mound staff. Brenton has shown quality in the minors and See is a solid outfielder, while Geary’s exit could open a slot for Cunningham and Lee in Seattle’s lineup. Jacobs of Seattle has nine straight wins as the team opens a tough road stretch against Oakland and San Francisco.
