The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-07-31

The series of contests beginning
with the Brewers is expected to
supply the customers with lively &C
ton right down the line owing to
the fact the pennant hopes of the
Indians will hinge on the outcome
of their record as the western teams
make the last eastern invasion. The
Redskins will hit the road again
following the Minneapolis series that
starts on Aug. II.
Allan SothOron'S surprising Brew
ers, now in the midst of a winning
streak, ousted the Redskins from
second place on Sunday and it is
now up to the Indians to win back
the runner-up position while the
Cream City FASTENERS are in town.
Bitter rivalry of the genuine brand
exists between the clubs and men,
berS of both teams are keyed to
pitch in and fight until the last
man is out.
Here for Four Tits
The Brewers are scheduled at the
stadium four consecutive nights and
will be replaced by the K. G. Blues
en Saturday. Milwaukee was idle
yesterday while indianapolis took
a licking at Columbus and the
Sothoron brigade was one full game
ahead of the locals today, with
MINNEAPOLIS two and One-half
games ahead of the Brewers and
three and one-half games ahead of
the Indians.
Columbus, in fourth place, chal-
longing the Redskins for the leader
ship of the eastern division, is trail
ing the Tribe by only two games.
There has been so much balloon
talk in the newspapers recently that
it is believed the Indians became
balloon minded in Columbus. At
any rate, the Red Birds threw a
six-run rally against the Tribe in
the seventh stanza in the Buckeye
city yesterday and cake-walked in
with the game after a SUGGEST and
game Of miscues. Both sides COM
mitted three boots.
Rosenberg Pounds Ball
Indianapolis pounded out twelve
hits and Columbus fifteen. Burwell
and Butzberger toiled on the Tribe
slab and Klinger and Sims were
employed in the Red Bird box. Bur-
we'll was charged with the defeat,
although given poor support. The
Birds captured three out of the five
games.
Harry Rosenberg was chief
slugger for the Hoosiers with two
triples and four runs batted in. Fred
Bedore collected three blows, one
for three cushions. Cullop and
Heath supplied the heavy artillery
for Columbus. The former wall
loped a circuit drive that went over
the fence at the 460-foot mark. Gull
lop also got a double and single
and Heath smacked the sphere for
three singles.
Major Sleuths Arrive
Big league scouts converged on IN
dianapolis today to watch the In
dams and the western clubs come
through. tits a nice, convenient
spot to look 'em over" explained
one ivory hunter. Field agents rep
resenting the New York Giants and
Chicago White SoX arrived this
and other major Sleuths are
expected to be occupying comfort
able chairs at the stadium tonight.
One of the main topics of discus
sion around town converns the ages
of Mt. Vernon George Washington,
the indianapolis fence buster, and
Lefty Bob Logan, Tribe southpaW
twister. In the records at the ball
park Washington is listed as "a and
Logan as %. Mr.. G. Wash got his
first peek at Texas cactus June 4,
1910, and Lefty Bob blinked his eyes
for the first time at Nebraska's tall
corn on Feb. 8, 1911. Now let the
astrologists go to work.
Stewart Bolen, the beefy south
paw, is slated to open on the mound
for the Indians tonight.
