General Dan Kleinfelder, of the Athletics, is arranging a nine to be composed of the A’s Reserves. The General heads the list that the affable and courteous “Philadore” handed us, and after him comes “Old Reliable”–two good names–Kleinfelder and Berkenstock–to begin with, but the General’s Reserve force boasts of others who have at one time or another distinguished themselves upon the gree sward–Charlie Gaskill and his brother Neddy, Hayhurst, Jimmy Diehl, Johnny Kalmer, Sterling, Tiers, Flanagan, Beasley, and other. Now wouldn’t it be strange if the “Reserve Guard” should resolve upon defeating the A Ones? It would be funny. To horse at once, General.
