STELLAR PITCHING FEATURES EARLY MAJOR TILTS

Pruett, French, Hallahan and Sweetland Turn in Brilliant Performances Lefthander With Giants Holds Phils to One Hit in Eight Innings; Lloyd Brown, Senators’ Southpaw Already Has Registered Two Triumphs: Frey Also Shines. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. April 21.—Stellar pitching has featured the opening games of the major league season, with left-handers carrying off the lion's share of the laurels. Pitching has played the most important role in sixteen of the thirty-three games played up until today. Hub Pruett. New York Giants new southpaw; Larry French. Pittsburgh left-hander; Bill Hallahan, St. Louis Cardinals left-hander, and Lester Sweetland, Philiies southpaw, have turned in four brilliant pitching performances in their first appearance on the mound this season. Pruett, who formerly was with the St. Louis Browns, held the Phillies to one hit for eight innings at the Polo Grounds Saturday, but the Giants were behind, 2 to 1, when he left the box for a pinch hitter in the eighth Inning.

The one hit made off Pruett was a home run by Chuck Klein with OT>oul on base. The Giants won the game in the ninth, 3-2, but Fred Fitzsimmons, who replaced Pruett, received credit for the victory. Pruett was with Newark last year. French and Hallahan each pitched two-hit games in beating Cincinnati and Chicago, respectively, 7-1 and 11-1. Sweetland held the Brooklyn Robins to three hits in pitching the Phillies to a 1 to 0 victory in the opening game. Lloyd Brown, Washington southpaw who once saw Babe Ruth. Lou Gehrig and Bob Meusel hit successive home runs off him on three pitched balls,' already has hung up two victories, one of them a threehit game against the Red Sox. Four shutouts have been recorded. In addition to Sweetland's shutout, they were pitched by Walberg, Athletic's southpaw, against Washington. 9-0; Malone, Cubs’ right-hand-er, against the Cardinals, 3-0, and Willis Hudlin, Cleveland right-hand-er, against Detroit, 2-0. A list of the few hit games follow: One Hit Pruett, Giants, against Phillies (8 Innings i. Fitzsimmons received credit for the victory. 3-2. Two Hits Hallahan. Cardinals, against Cubs, won, 11-1.

Cellarites Talk It Over

-,-.J||=@u

IF this were a talking picture, you’d probably hear William (Billl McKeehnie. right, manager of the Boston Braves, telling Charles (Heinie) Wagner, left, manager of the Boston Red Sox. that the cellar is such a cool place during the terrific heat of a summer’s pennant drive. Both McKeehnie and Wagner are said to have second story ideals, but the general opinion is that they will reside in the National and American League basements. They were photographed just before the Braves defeated the Red Sox for the world’s basement championship. The Red Sox were in a three-way tie for fourth place today and McKechnie’s team was third in the National.

Fifteen Pitchers See Action Over Week-End as Brewers Beat Tribe

BY EDDIE ASH The Indians played ’em close over the week-end, but dropped two to the Milwaukee Brewers, 11 to 8 Saturday, and 9 to 8, ten innings, Sunday. The victory over Kansas City on opening day last Tuesday still stands as the lone Tribe triumph, and wfith three defeats showing in the league standing. Claude Jonnard took a pasting Saturday after being spotted a 7 to 0 lead, and on Sunday the Berghammer pastimers hopped on Cvengros for six runs in the second star.za, and though the home athletes finally knotted the score in he ninth at 8-a.ll, the visitors put over another marker in the tenth off George Payne. Fifteen pitchers paraded In and out during the two contests, seven Saturday and eight Sunday, and it

—Washington Park ChatterBY EDDIE ASH

HERE'S one that will knock the nation’s baseball experts for a flip. During the course of the pastiming at Washington park Sunday the Milwaukee pitchers issued nine passes and not a single walk was turned into a run by the Indians. On the other hand of seven walks off Tribe pitchers, four of the number developed into Brewer runs. Bring on your statistics, boys, and add another high spot to baseball history. a tt tt Walter Wolf, southpaw from Quincy, operated for five innings Easter and gave up only two hits, but one was Jenkins’ homer. It was fair enough pitching at that compared with the brand some of the other throwers put out. Walter retired after the seventh for a pinch hitter. ff ft tt Manager, corriden bumped into shortage of reserve power in the ninth when with the score 8 and 8. and runners on third and second and two out, he was compelled to let pitcher Payne bat and take three swings. Corriden already had used Paul Wolfe, Crouse and Porwell in a pinch, and Koenecke had relieved Bejma in right and Monahan had relieved Connolly at first. Ernest Lorbeer was available, but couldn’t be used to hit for Payne without the Tribe running the rusk of being without a catcher in case Sprinz got hurt. It was a swell break for the Brewers and Herb Cobb quickly disposed of Payne.

Wally Berger’s home run with the bases filled featured a six-run rally in the seventh inning and the Boston Braves defeated Brooklyn. 7 to 2. Berger is a rookie outfielder from the Los Angeles Pacific Coast League club. It was Brooklyn’s third straight loss. a a a Rain prevented the other two fames.

took diligent work on the part of the box score keepers to record the changes. Indianapolis used four flingers Saturday and the same number on the Sabbath, the defeats being charged to Lee Daney and Payne. Winning hurlers were Rosy Ryan and Herb Cobb. Tom Jenkins, Brewer centerfielder. beat the Corridenites Sunday by poling a home run in the seventh with one mate aboard and also by executing a brilliant running onehanded catch on Hoffman in the Indians’ half of the same round. Two runners were on the paths when Jenkins sprinted into deep left center to haul in Hoffman's drive that was figured good for three bases when the Tribe batter connected.

Excitement grew too tense for Manager Berghammer of the visitors and he was chased to the clubhouse by Umpire Bailey as the teams struggled in the late innings. Marty was mad enough to eat mud and talked to himself all the way to the gate. Rosy Ryan bossed the team after Bergie's departure. n tt tt Eddie SICKING claimed interference by catcher Young in the first inning, but got nowhere with Bailey.

Bud Taylor, La Barba in Feature Go Terre Haute Battler Seeks Title Chance in Bout Tonight. Bn United Pres* CHICAGO, April 21.—Bud Taylor, the blonde terror from Terre Haute, Ind., tonight will trade punches with Fidel La Barba in a match which may have much to do with the eventual selection of a title opponent for Featherweight Champion Bat Battalino. The fight has been termed by Promoter Jack Dempsey as the first in a 126-pound elimination campaign, which he hopes will result in the selection of the most “logical’’ opponent for a featherweight title match this summer. Before the elimination bouts end, Jack hopes to have sent into action all four of the leading contenders for Battalino’s crown. The four are Taylor, La, Barba, Kid Chocolate and Earl Mastro. Tonight's fight promises to be a battle of left hands. Bud had perhaps the wickedest left hook in his divison as a bantam and La Barba's left was good enough to carry him to the flyweight title. The opinion among those who bet was “even money’’ today. IRISH THIN LIES ENTER SOUTH BEND. Ind., April 21. Notre Dame’s cinder artists today began a week of intensive training, pointing toward the Drake relays next Saturday. No announcement has been made regarding the personnel of the squad to make the trip, but Coach Nicholson said today that about fifteen men would be included.

Young and Stanton were good for five runs and a circuit swat by Len Koenecke of the Indians was good for three. It was a muddy struggle Easter, for the entire game was played in a drizzle that soaked the field, handicapped the pitchers and drenched the players. It required two hours forty-three minutes to decide the fracas in the rain. Two more contests remain in the Brewer series, but weather this morning failed to give any encouraging signs for action this afternoon. After Tuesday the Cream City team will depart and will be followed in by Lefty Leifield’s St. Paul Saints. Give the Indians credit for battling until the last. They tied up Saturday's fray In the eighth and on Sunday exploded a rally in the ninth for three runs to throw the contest into a 50-50 racket. Hoffman doubled after two out in the tenth, but was left when Barnhart flied to Pick. In the Milwaukee half of the extra round Young walked, Cobb sacrificed. Sicking tossed out Bloxsom and Grimes singled, scoring Young. Koenecke backed against the fence for Pick's wallop. Mervin Shea, well-known catcher, has been obtained by the Brewers from the Detroit Tigers. The pitcher Hopkins on the Milwaukee staff is not Jack Hopkins, formerly with St. Paul. This Paul Hopkins is St. Louis Brownie property.

Hall Is Sent to Quincy Pitchers Prentice Hall, southpaw, and Gene Jones were released by the Indians today to Hp y Schmandt's Quincy club of the Three-I League. They need seasoning to become accustomed to bearing up in the tight places. Hall broke into league ball last year by holding Milwaukee to one hit, Grimes, first up, getting the lone safety. Lefty's trouble here was a habit of going to pieces when runners got on. He formerly was a star athlete at the Coiumbus (Ind.) high school. Gene Jones was obtained from the Nebraska State League. Pitcher San Filippo, also out of the Nebraska circuit, was released back to the Class D loop. He did not go south with the Tribe.

Babe Ruth Says

NEW YORK, April 21. WITH the first week of the season over and done with, I see little reason for changing my opinion of the power of the contending clubs. Those early games, aside from certain pitching shortcomings due to cold weather and the fact that the pitchers are not yet in

trim, have run just about true to form. The strength in the two leagues Is just about where it was figured, and the weaknesses doped before the season opened have shown up about as expected. The thing that has impressed me more than

anything else in these early games is the number of young fellows* who have shown a lot of stuff in breaking into the lineups. Third baseman Chapman with the Yankees, Jolley with the White Sox, Funk with the Tigers. Ferrell with the Browns, Marshall with the Giants. Berger with the Braves, Lopez with the Dodgers—those are only a few of the first year men who have made good from the start. It's just another answer to the old cry that they aren't sending young ball players up any more. And a pretty fair answer it is too. Going back over the records you’ll find mighty few baseball years when so many kids have broken in at one time or have done so well.

So far as the American League is concerned, the Athletics already have shown enough strew?* 1 ' to prove that they are *’.e club that will i.e/e to be licked to win a. pennant. When it comes down to a final baseball analysis pitching is the thing that wins ball games and pennants, and that pitching staff of Connie Mack's is so strong that the club can put up with a lot of weaknesses elsewhere and still carry on. A word about the Yankees. We got away to a little bad start. Our hitting was off color and some of the boys suffered mental lapses In those first games—lapses that cost us some runs and ball games. But I still think we've got the most powerful club in the league and barring injuries, I've got a hunch we'll be right up there at the finish. You can’t tell much about a league race on one week of play. A lot of things can happen, between now and October. A lot of players who look good now' can fade out of the picture before then, and some clubs that are away to a bad start can come back to win. Judging from the crowds and the fan interest it looks like a great year. 11 that's needed now is a couple of good tight races and you’re likely to see every attendance record ever made broken to small bits before the major season ends.
