casualties among the privates; but
General Cochrane hadn't escaped
the wholesale blight. Not by a long
shot, or by Bold Venture If you
prefer.
The season had scarcely started
before Mr.. Cochrane stuck his
thumb In the path of foul tip and
was forced out of the line up. This
in itself was an ominous thing.
THIS wasn't all, either. Some
Il days later Mr.. Cochrane read a
book and it went to his head. Or
rather to his eyes. Anyway he
couldn't see for several days. 1t
may have been technical book on
umpiring, judging from the result
The luck of the Tigers last year
and the year before was traditional.
They went through two full cam
paigns without a major injury, and
they won two championships in a
row. In picking them to make it
three straight this spring, baseball
observers added IF their luck
holds out"
Well, it looks as If it's beginning
to turn, and turn completely sour.
When Mr.. Cochrane starts sticking
his thumb into foul balls, things
look dark. Relatively speaking, of
course, the injury to Greenberg is
the staggering blow. He comes close
to being the back bone of the Tigers
offense, and experience has demon
strated you can not replace back
bone with wish bone.
TOR the next two or three months
Il Mr.. Cochrane won't be able to
do much more than wish he had
Hammering Hank back in the line
up driving in those runs. Hammer
ing Hank drove in ITO runs for the
Tigers last season, which was ex-
actly 40 more than any other slug
ger in either of the two big leagues
was able to do.
The Tigers were leading by five
or six games when they clinched the
pennant, and while the records are
not available, it seems reasonable to
assume Hammering Hank must
have won at least 20 ball games,
maybe Is, all by himself. So you can
imagine just now greatly his bat is
going to be missed.
Il
TITO offset the absence of Green
l. berg for three months-and it's
going to be all of that-the cham
pionS will have to start clicking at
top speed in every department. And
it so happens that up to now they
have been clicking in very few de-
partments.
It's little incidents like this that
cause Mr. Cochrane to squint into
the golden sunbeams of a May
afternoon and moan, 1T never rains
but it pours."
