Pitching Ace Due to Start
Against ( t Cards
Terry to Get Annually Under Terms of New 5-Year Contract.
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 2.—King Carl Hubbell was intrusted today with the job of keeping the New York Giants on top of the National League. The last two games the Giants went Yo the front they stayed there only 24 hours each time. Bill Terry,
free to devote his entire time to diriecting the Giants’ campaign now that he has wangled a new fiveyear contract at $40,000 a vear out of President Horace Stoneham, is banking on meal-ticket Hubbell. On his last two starts Hubbell was hammered out of the box by the Cubs and Pirates, although he wasn’t charged with a defeat either time. Hubbell's record is 17 won and 6 lost. If Hubbell stops the Cardinals and flashes any of his old form the Giants will be wellequipped with pitching strength for
Tae September drive. Opposing Hub- |
bell will be Gi Johnson. Hal Schumacher encouraged New York's pitching outlook when he hurled the Giants to a 7-3 victory over the Cardinals yesterday. He allowed nine hits. Lon Warnecke, Cards’ starter, had to leave the game in the fourth inning with New York leading, 3-2, when he was hit on the left leg by a line drive from Jimmy Ripple’s bat. Mike Ryba replaced him and the second ball he threw to Mel Ott was whammed against the upper deck for homer No. 29, accounting for three runs. The Cubs, after one day in first piace, booted themselves right back into the runnergp position, centage pointg behind the Giants With the score deadiocked, 4-4, and two out in the eighth, Lonnie Frey subbing at third, allowed Gil Brack's easy roller to get through his legs. One run scored. A scratch hit scored another run. Max Butcher, who pitched the last 1 2-3 innings, was the winning pitcher, the loser. Pittsburgh dropped its straight, losing to the Phillies, Earl Grace's homer in the eighth won the game.
