Playing regularly at shortstop for the National League pennant-winning champions, the Cincinnati Reds, is young Edwin Joost. Joost, a brilliant fielder, is not a heavy hitter but he is making it hard for Billy Myers to regain his post by the way he has been handling the shortstop position. He has come through with some timely base hits too, strengthening his chances of holding the job. The Pacific Coast youth covers a lot of ground and with Lonnie Frey at second has helped tighten the Red in- field. Joost came to the Reds from the Coast League in 1936.
