When
Moe Berg held out in 1931, White Sox scouts combed the minors for another catcher,
coming up with Grube. In 1932 Chicago acquired
Charlie Berry, who had beaten out
Grube for the first-string catching job at Lafayette College and did so again with
the White Sox. On the football field, Grube succeeded Berry as star end at Lafayette
College and then followed him into the NFL for a season (1928) before turning to
baseball.
