1946 SEASON COLUMBUS RED SOX Manager:
Earl Dickey
1946 . . .
Again in 1946 Earl Dickey was the Manager, Coach of the team who
changed their name to
"The Columbus Red Sox".
Also, the team upgraded it's schedule to include several of the
Indianapolis Industrial Amateur League teams, (tsk - semi pro !). With the stiffer competition
the team finished the season with 9 Wins and 9 Losses.
However, this extremely young team
caught the attention of these Indianapolis teams as they were
warmly complimentary after
close games.
Kenneth Dickey was again the leading pitcher.
He followed the learning trend of the team as a
whole with a record of 5 Wins and 5 Losses.
Von Boll joined the team and posted a record of 3
Wins and 4 Losses. Leading hitters were: Joe Henney (1b), Bill
Herron (2b) another new face in
46, and Don Scheidt.
