Major Leagues To Launch 1952 x if ■■/’•' c Season Tuesday ; - New York. April 14 — (UP) — Unless the hitter.*?, du sorne unexpected fence’ rattling tdmorrow, opening day in the major leagues should be a parade of pitching duels. : y ’I.J ■4‘ ;•’ On almost every front, the man- ■' imagers nominated their ace hurlers to go but in quest of air winning start, apd, since the pitchers have been ahead of (he hitters all spring, the outlook is for a succession of low scoring games. There were eight 2c-game winners from |951 nominated to pitch the openers along with a»l9-game winner and two who chalked up 18 wins apiece. However, in most places ’ the weather, wasn’t expected to be of much help to the hurlers. Although the outlook was generally "for fair skies, it was expected to bb chilly and perhaps Windy in a number of places and there was a chance for 'showers) in. Detroit and Boston. Barring ra(n or partiqplarly cold weather, which wouldcut down on advance estimates, upwards of 237,OUO fan.-) are expected for the first day program, which would represent a big increase ffpm 1951 when 171,678 turned out for,the first full k program. _ . I ■5 The day’s biggest crowd was expected in Detroit to see the Tigers play the Browns — of all people. The 58;000 seat capacity Briggs Stadium has been sold’ out for some titne. At Washington, President Truman will make his final 1 1 appearance as the “official” start- ' \ er by throwing out the fijst ball ' i for the game-between the Senators and Red Sox. A sellout crowd of 30,000 was assured tjhere, the same ) number‘'which was estimated for the operier in Chicago between the White Sox and-the Indians. The world (j-hampion Yankees begin shooting, for their fourth Straight flag at Philadelphia against the Athletics before 22.500. In the National League, Cincinnati. which traditionally stalls .out ■i on opening day and then has to scrounge for customers the rest of the season, had 34.000 fans ready to welcome the Reds against the Cubs. The pertnant-defending Giaintssex-C pected 32.500 for their opener against the Phillies in New York. At St. Lpuis. where ownfr Fred Saigh loises no time turning nigtit into day, the Cardinals estimated they - would attract 20.000 hardy souls td their opener under the < lights against the Pirates. And a turnout of 10,000 was predicted in Boston where the Braves play the . i ) .-■ ’ • I l* I — — J-' .
