baseball, but couple of freaky two
baggers put him into a perspiration
of anxiety, and the Browns came with
in one run of reducing the game to 8
tie. The Babe attributes the fact that
his batting was confined to one mere

which was presented to him just be-
fore the game.
Bodie shared the batting honor with
Truck Hannah, who drove in the
second pair of Yankee runs. With
