Whales Cool Out of Action
CHICAGO, IL. August 24, 1913 - The Whales will be minus Spencer Cool for about 5 weeks after the shortstop suffered shoulder tendinitis while colliding with a player at a base in a recent game against Baltimore. Cool and the Chicago skipper were hoping further examination might show there was less damage than originally thought and he would be absent a shorter duration.
The 35-year-old has made his way around the UBA in the past two seasons. Last year, he was traded from Detroit to Cleveland at the July deadline. At this year's deadline, Charles Weeghman fulfilled his promise by bringing no less than three new players to Chicago, Cool being one of them. With the Whales, Cool has hit .321 in 21 games.
A look at his total stats shows Cool with a .294 average, no home runs, 57 RBIs and 51 runs scored. He has played in 118 games.
