KONEY MAKES NO ERRORS IN 401 CHANCES ST. Loris. MO.. Aug. 14.—Dur ing these busy days, when things of much note are hap pening, the performances of one player have been overlooked by all 'he dope sharks. This player is Ed ward Konetchy, the Wisconsin boy "ho first sacks for the Cardinals. Money has handled 481 straight chances without an error. He has played 44 games without a slip. Money is going along trying to make a name for himself as king of the first sackers. Some term him that now. There are a few better, one of the most notable of 'hese being Jake Daubert. of Brooklyn. Nevertheless. Money’s record of no errors In 44 games Is something worth while. Money’s great record Is all the more remarkable considering the fact that he has many chances to make errors relaying balls to the plate. The big first sacker not only* does duty In his territory, but when a ball is hit to the outfield Money is right on the Job to take the relay and peg It to the plate or any other base. In this way he has good chances of making errors, but thus far. at least in the last 44 games, has escaped a black mark. Then, many times h° saves the in flelders from bunk marks when they make hurried throws by mak ing one-handed stabs for high throws or digging 'em out of the turf. The big train is one of the most valuable assets to the local Nation al league entry, anil he should make a modern day record of straight games without an error. Ever since Money has been in the Tom Lynch organization he has been right up with the leaders in fielding each season, and this year is out to land at the head, which he stands a good chance of doing. To prove the assertion that Konev Is a busy individual is true, it will he said that he has made 29 as sists in the 44 games. His busiest afternoon was on June 21. when be got four assists. On more than one occasion he has been credited with three assists in a game, while the twos come as regular as the ones. The other 452 chances he has been credited with have been put outs.
