Mogridge was an unlucky pitcher
with the Yanks last year. The
breaks all seemed to go against him.
Lewis, though still a great out
fielder, has never shown his old Bos-
ton form. Before he came to New
York Lewis was ranked among the
best. He broke his ankle sliding into
a bag last summer and Higgins fig
ured he would be too slow for the
Yanks this year.
Roth the temperamental outfeld-
err who has played on every Ameri-
can League club except Detroit and
st. Louis, had the speed that Hug
gins wanted.
Hence the trade.
But Roth has been idle most of
the time so far. Young Bob Meu-
sells hitting has kept him in the
lineup. Ping Bodie and Ruth aren't
likely to be benched to give Roth
a chance. What looked like a good
trade for Higgins has worked out
the other way, according to the
mathematics in the case
Mogridge will likely tame the
Yanks again when they meet and
Lewis and his bat will cause the
New York pitchers trouble.
Mogridge knows what the Yank
batters can hit. Lewis knows what
Yank pitchers have got.
