. one week, possibly three. George Herman is not enjoying his convalescence, because it means a serious setback in his one-sided i home run race with young Jimmy Foxx of the Philadelphia Athletics. The Bambino usually gets as much kick out of an injury or an illness, with their attendant heroics, as a 6-year-old kid, but not this time. His all-time home run record of sixty, which he blasted out in 1927, ife threatened by the hustling Foxx, and the Babe wants to i be out where he can try to protect it. Babe Is 12 Behind A strange combination of figures shows that the 26-year-old Foxx has driven out thirty-eight fourbaggers this season, while the 38j year-old Babe nas garnered only | twenty-six. Ruth was injured during the seventh inning. Pipgras was pitching for the Yanks, leading, 5 to 2. Berry, Chicago’s catcher, had been thrown out at first. Then Manager Lew Fonseca of the Sox sent in Carey Selph to bat for pitcher j Gaston. Selph hit a short fly over Lazzerl’s head. The Babe sprinted I in to get it. He lunged and had the ball in his glove, but the thrust forward tore the extensor muscle. His leg buckled under him. He fell in a heap. The ball dropped and Selph got a twoJ bagger. Carried Off Field George Herman was carried off j I the field by his teammates, given i first aid in the dressing room by | Dr. A. L. Alsop, club physician, and Dr. Earl Painter, club trainer. They sent him home with orders to “keep I off your feet for at least three days.” ‘•I felt as if someone stuck a | knife into me,” the Babe explained. ! “But I’ll be out playing again in three or four days.” This injury recalled the accident to his left leg last year at Boston ! when the Babe collided with Char ; ley Berry, Red Sox catcher. He was out of the game for about three weeks then. Perhaps Babe's most celebrated j infirmity was the attack of indiges- j tion he suffered in 1925 when he collapsed at Asheville, N. C., during ' a training trip. His teammates in- j sisted he had engulfed too many j hot dogs.
