baseball research question

I have an autograph from about as obscure player as possible, Bud Heine,who played one game with the Giants in 1921,the last game of the season(october 2nd,2nd game of DH).I wrote the Hall of Fame research dept. asking some questions and they sent me a boxscore from the game from their library.According to their boxscore he had 1 assist and no putouts,but according to every internet source(retrosheet,baseball-reference,baseball-almanac) he had 2 assists and 1 putout.Anyone have a source for boxscores that disputes(or proves obviously) one of these sources.

I thinks its weird a guy who played 6 innings career either had his only boxscore wrong or forever has been wrong according to encyclopedias


Its interesting to see the boxscores from these games,Heine replaced Dave Bancroft in his only game in the 2nd game of a doubleheader.In the first game a guy named Hank Schreiber replaced Johnny Rawlings as a defensive replacement and made an error to lose a game.Shouldnt they have known a guy named Rawlings would one day have a gold glove award named after him!
