Babe Gets Three Hits Out Of
-Four Trips in First Game

New York, Oct. (uP)-The
babe is on a rampage and the
hopes of the New York Yankees
hang high.
There was truth in the saying.
AS the Babe goes. SO 60 the
Yankees" when the American
league champions wrested the open-
ing victory from the S.. Louis Car
dinals.
There may be even more truth
In the saying as the 1928 world
series goes on.
The st. Louis board of strategy
elected to pitch to Ruth in the
opening game and the plan re-
suited in costly defeat for little
Billy Sherdel and the Cardinals.
In pitching to the Bambino. the
Cardinals traded three hits for one
strikeout.
The striheout got the National
league champions nothing. but
I'age's three blows helped the Yam
KEGS score four runs.
Babe had his eye on the hall yes
terday and sherdel's puzzling as
sentiments of slow curves held no
terrors for baseball's mightiest
slugger. He faced Sherdel three
times and raped out two doubles,
scoring both times. The third time
he faced Shcrdel. Babe was called
out on strikes after working the
count to two-three. Sherdel broke
a curve over the plate for the third
strike. Babe thought it was
ball aud started toward first base,
but registered no kick when Umpire
Brick Owens called him out.
Then in the ninth he slapped out
a single off Sylvester johnson and
helped get Mark Koenig home with
the final run of the game.
Off to a good start. Ruth may
never be stopped until he has
hammered the Yankees into another
worlds baseball championship
their third in eight years.
Eahe has his batting eye backed
up by the confidence of his success
full hitting in the opening game,
but he may need them both TODAY
when he faces his nemesis Of the
1925 series. Grover Cleveland Alex
ander.
No respecter OF the Rabe's dan
gercus bat nor his long list of
slugging records. Alexander planned
to pitch to Ruth Just as he did in |
the 1926 series when he held the |
Yankees slugger hitless in seven |
trips to the plate.
Aside from the ball game. the |
duel between Alexander's wise old |
noodle" and steady arm and Ruth's
keen eye and powerful shoulders
was expected to develop into the
most dramatic sidelight of the day.
i haven't altered my plan to
