 This sparked the Giants to go looking elsewhere for a catcher that could provide significant offense for the team, and they found it in Cincinnati on April 27 when they traded Schmidt, Don Blasingame, and Sherman Jones to the Reds for catcher and noteworthy slugger Ed Bailey.Bailey immediately took over as starting catcher for the Giants, with Landrith remaining the second-string catcher and Haller demoted to third.Landrith's playing time was severely limited for the season, playing in only 43 games.
