Tit was Catcher Grabowski's
misfortune to break into the
- majors on a club with SO
great performer as Ray Schalk.
A glutton for work, few White Sox
subs have had chance to do much
catching since Schalk joined the
team in 1912.
Going to a club badly in need of
catchers Grabowski got his first real
chance to break into a major league
lineup as one of the regulars. He
has helped the Yankees lot and
has maintained a batting average
close to 800.
Morehart was only slightly con-
sidered in the spring by Manager
Higgins of the Yanks, but he has
already made his presence felt in a
most convincing manner. An in
jury to Shortstop Mark Koenig gave
him his cherished opportunity and
he has made the most of it.
Sending Lazzeri to short, More
hart was placed at second and, de-
spite the loss of Koenig who had
been playing sensational ball, the
Yankees went merrily on their win
