Power Hitter (1919)

“[Pirates manager Hugo] Bezdek is well fortified for talent. His infield is the sparkling tribute to his genius, built from Vic Saier at first base, George Cutshaw at second, Buster Caton at short and Boekel at third, he has a combination that is very fast and composed of most power hitters.” Evening State Journal (Lincoln, NE), June 21, 1919, p2
