American League May i Face Triple Headers Untimely Rain Could Force Three Games r j New York. Sept. 6 (UPI Despite the efforta of American league president William Harrldgc to avoid , them, a little untimely Septembc; rainfall may make a triple header , or two neceaaary to settle the Im . pending “photo-finish" for the pen , nant. it appeared today. With Ne w York. St lamia. D< ! troit and Boston likely to put on ' tin- most exciting atretc h race in ; , the- history of the league, any | games wiped off the- schedule be cause of the weather could affect , vitally the- chances of the teams involved. unless they had the oppottunity to play them, even at the i rate of three- in a clay At Chicago. Harridge said he had ' taken every possible precaution to eliminate the necessity for triple headers, "le-cause such a procedure- wouldn't be- fair io the teams involved." ' Some-tiilng else would be- worked out If po--flile. if tile necessity arose,” he- said "Most of the- clubs have enough single- dales on their last trips to take- care- of post|H>nemeiits. We haven’t allowed any of the- club to c-he-club- double headers on their last trips as a guard against late season jams." These Is no rule against triple j headers in either league- and with lighting facilities available at most of the parks It would lee- possible I to work out a they twilight-night i billing is the- magnates so desired.] The National set a prece-dent for - triple headers by settling third place with a three game- set on the final day of Hie se-aaon in I>2D bei tween Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. ' The Reel- clinched third placeley winning the- first game 13 to 4. leut since the triple- attraction had been billed, the- other games wereplayed too. the Red winning thej second 7 to 3 and the Pirates the, j third, 6 to o, with darkness hold ] I ing that one- to six innings. From Sept. !!• until the season I ends, none- of the four contending American league teams lias an op- , en elate and although few double • headers are involved, a stretch of I rainy weather might necessitate J i either a triple header or tin- playI ing of a gatrn- after the season of fie tally was over unless It was dropped from the schedule.
