Gets Chance with Reds--Hank Sauer (left), who came to the Cincinnati Reds as an outfield candidate, is getting his chance on first base while Frank McCormick is laid up with injuries. Sauer starred at first with Birmingham in the Southern Association, hitting .330 and driving in 114 runs last year. Above, he checks over the situation with hard-hitting catcher Ray Lamanno, also a Birmingham product.
