Kansas City Adds To Detroit Slump By International News Service Ralph Branca either is a very mis-informed’ ex-baseball player or the Detroit Tigers haven’t heard they’re supposed to be the most improved club in the American League. A former 21-game winner with the Brooklyn Dodgers and now a publicist at 29, Branca recently surveyed the pennant picture to report that Boston will be New York's chief contender this year and Detroit will surprise by finishing third. It’s still three weeks to the start of the regular season but unless the Tigers start improving, the surprise will be that Bucky Harris' Bengals donh. finish last. The slumping Detroiters have won only four of their 17 spring exhibition games to earn the dubious distinction of being the losingest team in training. Even the Baltimore Orioles have fared better by losing'only 12 of their 14 starts. Sparkling performances by Lou Kratlow and Art Ditmar kept the Tigers stymied Tuesday. The right-handers doled out two hits as Kansas City triumphed, 7 to 2, at Lakeland. The Cleveland Indians, meanwhile. scored an 8-to-7 victory over the Orioles at Tucson with a ninthinning homerun by Jim Busby. Stu Locklin and Rudy Regalado also homered for the Tribe. At Tampa, Boston belted the Chicago White Sox for ten hits and a 7-to-2 decision, Frank Sullivan and Ike Delock scattering seven Chisox Hits. Another fine pitching show came at Clearwater, where Don Newcombe and Clem Labine limited Philadelphia to four hits while Brooklyn was pounding out a 14-hit, 6-to-2 victory. - A Newcombe pitch struck Willie Jones on the bead in the fifth inning and the Phillies third baseman was rushed to a hospital. Xrays disclosed no fracture but Jones will be out a few days. up in the sixth inning and St. Louis scored again in the seventh to beat Milwaukee, 2 to 1, at St. Petersburg. ~ ■ Vinegar Bend Mizell gave up the only two hits in the second inning. Mizell. Lais Arroyo and Ellis Kinder held the Braves hitless thereafter. The Chicago Cubs outslugged the New York Giants, 13 to 10, in a 33-hit duel at Phoenix. Harry Chit! delivered the big blow for Chicago and Giant homers came ffom the bats of Wes Westrum and Foster Castleman. Dick Colege singled in the winning run in the ninth inning as Pittsburgh downed Cincinnati, 5 to 4, at Fort Myers. Kaline's Sore Arm Worry For Tigers LAKELAND, Fla. (INS) — Manager Bucky Harris of the Detroit - Tigers- today ex pressed concern over the sore arm of Al Kaline, leading hitter in the major leagues last season. At first believed to be a minor complaint, the sore right arm of the 21-year-old right fielder is now being treated with care at the Tiger camp in Lakeland. Jack Homel, team trainer, has had Kaline benched for a week. The youngster has not participated in any workouts in that period. In fact, Kaline has played only 34 innings of Detroit’s spring exhibition schedule. x The Baltimore, Md., youth, dressed in street clothes, watches the team work out in the stands. Manager Harris, whose charges are experiencing another dismal spring campaign, declared: “It certainly makes a difference with Al out of the lineup.-AVe sure could use his big bat," Rumors were circulating in Lakeland that Kaline was suffering from osteomelytis, among other things. However. Homel put an end to these stories by saying: •Talk I‘ike that is ridiculous. It’s unfair to Al. too. He has a sore arm—that’s all.” Homel thinks an abscessed tooth which Kaline had before training began could have caused a reaction in the shoulder. Kaline, himself, is visibly concerned over the. condition of his arm. The usually pleasant youngster has been sullen, telling newsmen his “arm is just sore, that’s all I know.” ,He has been taking shots of cortisone daily to ease the inflammation in the arm. Kaline's last appearance in the lineup' was against Brooklyn on March 19 in Miami. Although he managed three hits, he again aggravated the sore shoulder. With the season opener less than a month away, much treatment'will be heeded if the popular youth is to open in his familiar right field spot at Briggs Stadium in Detroit. The answer might come this u-eekend when Hoipei is expected to give Harris the OK to use Kaline in an exhibition contest. If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a,- Democrat} Waul Ad.
