PITTSBURGH, PA. May 2, 1912 - The Keystones were certainly not the favorite to win it all this season. That honor would go to teams in the big cities of New York and Chicago. But Pittsburgh is the home of the best team in the United League through one month of play.
The team went 22-6 last month, putting them five games ahead of the next best team, the Reading Reds.
Pittsburgh owner Marshall Henderson, a real-estate mogul is known as having a very strong desire to win. It's clear now that he was willing to spend some extra money on building his team and it has paid off.
"We're doing a great job," he said while walking around downtown Pittsburgh. "Callahan's doing a great job managing the club. I think I'm doing a great job getting fans out to the park. We're going to keep this up."
