There he was out there on the

Of a cold, cutting breeze, with
rain falling during the late in
nings, and the thermometer
OnIy a few degrees removed
from the freezing point.
Yet he was just as calm, just as
effective as in midsummer. Other
nitchers couldn't make their curve
balls break, they couldn't get the
ball over the plate, they couldn't
produce their stuff but Herble
was Just as good as ever.
What a marvel he is. To my
mind the work of Pennock was the
outstanding feature in the game
that wasn't particularly interesting
nor particularly sensa tional.
If the game meant anything
at all from the Yankee standpoint,
it was the fact that at least the
BOYS seem to have emerged from
their hitting slump. I'm rDt sur
prised. Ball clubs are Of different
types, and the Yankees are of
peculiar outfit in their way.
We have a group of fellows who
will look terrible against mediocre
players. Our fellows can't seem to
get interested in exhibition games.
and they don't play their best
baseball unless there's something
at stake.
TIE Yankees playing their
opening game against the AthIe-
tics looked nothing at all like
the Yankees who were knocked
off by every little ierkwater
club through the South. Yes.
terday they had something.
So far az the Athletics are con-
cerned they looked good. They
