Infobox and lede
"whom he helped win" → "with whom he won"
Very pedantic: should be a period after "Jr" in "Lew Jr."
Early life
Switch order of sentences so that the fastball is sandwiched between his high school career & Athletics signing
Philadelphia Athletics
Today in voices I hear: an undergraduate professor telling me never to start a sentence with "However". Here, especially, because some people read one section at a time and the part about his signing is in a different section, the construction of the first sentence jolts the reader
A little more awkward setup here: I think it can be made clearer that Mack was resting his pitchers so that they could be sharp for the Series and that this was still the regular season.
I understand it's because of the name change, but it's awkward that this is the one section that doesn't have the team name
Since it was Pioneers 3 out of 4 seasons, I think it's fine to call it Elmira Pioneers. Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 21:22, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"won a career-high 24 games, setting the Elmira team record" → "set a franchise record with a career-high 24 games won"
"third baseman/outfielder" → "third baseman and outfielder"
Cardinals and Red Sox organizations
No apostrophes needed in the header
Military and final season
"he was relying on curveballs to get hitters out" → "he was best known for his "assortment of curveballs"" (or something of that sort, I just really like the newspaper quote)
Normally I'd ask for a cause of death but none of his obits seemed to mention it
I know, right? Doesn't help that 90% of the "Lew Krausse" obituaries are for his son... Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 21:26, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
