Ill 1S1O.
In the first world series with the
Yankees, Ruth developed an absess on
his right arm, which tnterfered with
his play, and forced him to the side
lines in the last three games. Ruth
hit .S13 in that series, and bagged
his first world series home run, but
he finished the series with eight strike
outs against five hits.
In the following year, 1922, the great
Bambino hit the world series depths.
He got only two hits in II times at
bat and emerged from the series with
the humble batting average of .11S.
His failure to come through in the
pinches was largely responsible for
the inability of the Yanks to win a
single game, in that series.
Ruth Proves Star i'm 1923.
The Babes big bat finally crashed
through to world series glory in 1923,
the third meeting of the Yanks and
Giants. Ruth was a big factor in
Huggins' victory that year. as he hit
1868 and cracked out three home runs,
two of them in one game.
I know that Ruth is not particularly
ting record and welcomes another
chance to tackle National League
pitching. This has been one of Ruth's
greatest seasons, and he should enter
the series in wonderful condition.
In some quarters, there still is a
rather silly belief that Ruth is a big
fat man who is played in right field
because of his home-run hitting.
There are few better defensive out
tielders in the game than Ruth, and
his arm is second only to that of Bob
Meusel In fact, Higgins has told me
that Ruth has thrown better this year
than any season since he came to
the Yankees.
Walker Steady Performer.
Cincinnati has a steady performer
in right field in Curtis Walker, who
Is a dangerous left-handed hitter

not particularly effective against
southpaWs. He hits a ball hard, and

Two more National markers were
