Pinch Quicks (QCK) - 1934

Quicks Logo

84-78
4th place Kukafka Division

The Quicks joined TWCL for the 1997 season and saw win totals increase from from 77 in their 1st year to 81 in 1949 and 89 in 2015 which was their 1st playoff appearance.

In 1934 the Quicks battled the Smiths in the final 4 game series of the year but fell 1 game short.

This was a team that didn't win as many games as they should have based on their runs scored/runs allowed differential.

SP/OF Martin Dihigo was elite as he posted a 1.032 OPS but struggled to pitch to his potential going 8-10 with a 4.60 ERA.

1B Hal Trosky had a .945 OPS while LF Heinie Manush used 46 doubles, 21 triples and 14 homers to post a .972 ops.

Lon Warneke should have been an ace but his ERA was 4.47 and Paul Derringer should have been a work-horse but was forced to spend a lot of time in the bullpen.

The Quicks were definitely a top 3 team in 1934 statistically but some bad luck and a crowded Kukafka division left them on the outside looking in.
