aECr, bel;evcs the Yanks will be right
out in front this season. 80 far as
batting goes at least.
Last season the Yanks enjoyed the
experience Of being the leagues
worst httters. They were at the foot
OF the figure column with an average
At bat Of .23S. The teams best bat
ter, Frank Baker, hit only .2S2, and
though the pitchers did their best all
through the race and dished up a
very fair class OF pitching they we're
so handicapped with the teams
weakness at bat that their twirling
avaiIed the team little.
Miller Higgins chief problem in
taking over the supervision Of the
team has been the strengthening Of
ii at bat and to this end he has pick
ed off Derrill Pratt and Ping Bodle.
There is every reason why Pratt
should hit better this season than he
did with the Browns last year. More
over Pratt is the real thing in the
way OF a second sacker and the
Yanks have needed just that for some
little while.
