Goldie Rapp, McGraw*s New Infielder.
Goldte Rapp, star infleider of the New York Giants, who was graduated
lust year from the American association as a member of the St. Paul club,
became a member of the Richmond Ceutral league team four years ago for
the princely price of $25U. Babe Myers, manager, believed he could put a team
111 the field for $f>00 anil the flrst man obtained was Rapp who had been a
member of the Peoria team of the Three-I league the year before. Rapp, In
the estimation of Myers, was a star even at that day, and he gladly rellu-
ouished one-half of 'his player budget*to bring him iuto the fold. Through-
out that season Rapp played In the Richmond tnfleld. His fielding always
was good but bis batting was not of high order until late in the season. Big
league scouts who visited Richmond took a decided liking to Rapp and the
Richmond Hub had visions of a big sale price in a year or two. The entrance
of the I'nlte l States in the war caused the disbanding of the Central league
ut the close of the season, however, uud Rapp began the year K>18 with no
strings attached.
