ST. LOUIS, MO. August 17, 1916 - St. Louis fans will be disappointed to learn that Nelson Mahoney developed a strained oblique while running the bases in yesterday's game. After the doctor informed the St. Louis Terriers manager that Mahoney was expected to miss 2 weeks, the manager told the press that the rest of the team would have to step up their play until the right fielder could return. "You can't make excuses in baseball, because there's always a game tomorrow," said the team's skipper.
In 1916 Mahoney has been the key batter for the Terriers, batting .323 with 134 hits and hitting 6 home runs, 58 RBIs, 35 walks, .372 OBP and has scored 62 runs. He has played in 103 games, but the next few weeks are extremely important. St. Louis is currently three games behind the 1st place Centennials.
