Bill Coughlin to shore up Detroit third base
O'Leary may keep his job until a better man is found. Greminger and Robinson split third, but Bill Coughlin will plug the hole for Detroit. He is not a star but will give his best, while Detroit’s catching is weak and pitching is strong, with a championship outlook possible if the club improves. The Nationals lead the NL by a large margin as Giants hold home advantage and keep distance from Chicago, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh amid suspensions and injuries.
