Shibe Park yesterday in the opening

he did bank double up against the

Ruth began his record d-making on

May, twelve in June, thirteen in July,
slumped back to seven in August

whether the team can rally from such

PITCHING RECORDS

Lefthanded pitchers nave Deen
big factor In former world series
Especially have the National League
champion relied almost exclusively
on their southpaws. In 1916 Robin
son, Of Brooklyn, started lefthanders
in three of his five games. In 1917
John McGraw started a lefty" in
every game in which the Giants OPP
posed the White Sox-Schupp, Ben
ton and Sallee, each starting two
games.
Again In 1918 Fred Mitchell ig-
nored his righthanders entirely, and
Vaughn and Tyler each pitched three
games against the Red Sox. Last
year Pat Moran got off TO a flying
start with his lefthanders. as Ruether
and Sallee won him the first and sec
ond games OF the 1919 series. But
when they came back again both were
driven, out of the box.

spitballer, unquestionably will open
the series for Brooklyn, l am famil-
