Story 1: Among the writings of Stan Miller (source unknown): were blessed with many able, exciting and interesting players but catchers seemed to catch much of the idolatry ... Back in the 40s for a few years we had one in our midst ... BUBBLES HARGRAVE, at 622 Miami Avenue. He moved here because of his old pal, EPPA RIXEY. Bubbles who caught for Eppa, and is a member of the Red's Baseball Hall of Fame, said there was none better than his one time battery mate. Lou Smith, sports writer for the Enquirer, Quote Ol' Ep was just great as a pitcher, fielder and competitor, said Bubbles. Look upon him as the most outstanding man I ever came in contact with during my career. Eppa and Bubbles combined for one of the most electrifying moments in baseball. They engineered a double steal. Bubbles and I, said Rixey were the two slowest men in baseball. And we stole on Gabby Hartnett, the best thrower in the business. He couldn't believe it. So he just stood there, open-mouthed and forgot to throw. Bubbles broke into the major leagues with the Chicago Cubs in 1913. He spent time in the minor leagues but in 1921, the Cincinnati Reds brought him here and in the eight years he played in Cincinnati Bubbles became known as one of baseball's outstanding receivers and an idol of Redleg fans. In 1926, Bubbles led the National League in hitting with an average of .353. Then, in 1929, he went to St. Paul, in the American Association, as manager, and in 1930 Bubbles performed with the American League's famous Yankees. He recalls playing with such outstanding players as Eppa Rixey, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Waite Hoyt and Herb Pennock.
