Text	[from the Louisville correspondent] The team on its present trip is under the charge of probably the youngest manager who was ever placed in such a responsible position. Rosy-faced, red-headed harry Means, who is not yet quite old enough to vote, is piloting the the Kentuckians in their rambles through Kansas City, Cincinnati and St. Louis. Harry is the base ball editor of the Courier-Journal. The present owners of the Louisville Club seem to have a partiality for newspaper men, since Brown and Means, its last two managers, are both members of the Courier-Journal staff. Young Means is himself something of a pitcher, and three seasons ago, when the Athletics came here and got very hard up for pitchers, he twirled in one game for them against the Louisville team. He was not a winner, but he did very well. He has been practicing with the Louisvilles nearly all season, and may yet joint them as a regular pitcher. The Sporting Life October 2, 1889 [N.B. The A's game was probably an exhibition]
