BY JACK sORDs

A slender fellow with n frail ply
sique has become one Of the greatest
world series pitchers Of all time.
Herb Pennoek. built along the line
Of . feather, but possessing all the
~toughness and durability Of a steel
and concrete dugout in a battle field,
equalled the record of Jack Coombs,
old Athletic and Brooklyn star, when
he set the Pittsburgh Pirates down
In the third game Of this years
world series.
II was Pennoek's fifth win in the
big events and he has yet to suffer
a defeat. Incidentally. he IL the only
pitcher to retire Fl men in a row In
sever innings Of a series game and
the only one IN record with two
three-hit games to his credit.
Previously, Jack Coombs was the
only pitcher 10 win five games in
the big title events without suffer
ing a defeat. Pitching for the fam
GUS Athletics, he won three games
from the Cubs in 1910. The follow
ing year the Giants were his victims
in an eleven-inning game.
With Brooklyn in 1915, COMBS
won his fifth game, the only game
the Dodgers were unable to take from
Boston in that five-game sersss.
From that day and until Pennock's
recent win over the Pirates, Coombs
had the distinction Of being the only
pitcher to win five games in the big
classics without tasting defeat.
Besides his recent victory over the
Pirates, Pennock set the Giants down
twice in 1929, beating Hugh McQuil-
Ian and Jack Bentley 4 to 2 in his
first game, and finishing ahead Of
Art Nehf by a 6 to 4 count in the last
game. The second was a 10-inning
affair.
Great ~ his world series records
are, Pennock's real worth has been
shown during the fearful campaigns
when the big guns Of the American
league were battering his box and he
held out while the Yankee artillery
roared out victory after victory.
Pennock came to the American
league years and years ago. He was
with the Inflated Athletics when they
fell in the slaughter Of 1914. But
that wasn't Herbie's fault. He was
just a rookie then.
Pennock came 20 the Yanks from
Boston, and since his acquisition
has been one OF the greatest twirlers
the New Workers have ever had.
