MRS. FRED FRIEND,
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1936-05-28

The writer recently put this
question up to scores of ball
players in both leagues and the
answer was invariably Lefty Grove
of the Red Sox, Dizzy Dean of the
Cardinals, or Carl Hubbell of the
Giants, with the choice about
evenly divided.
Certainly, you couldn't go wrong
with any of them. When the
chips are down. one is about as
hard to beat as the other, and
only the other day Bill Terry said
his lean left-hander was about as
comfortable as an old shoe.
Star For Years
For many years now the Giants
have been calling on old Carl and
his screw ball whenever they felt
they had to win a game and, far
more often than not, the sage
from the Oklahoma sagebrush has
delivered the goods.
He looked so skinny and Sao
when he appeared at the Polo
Grounds nine years ago that the
late John McGraw wondered if
somebody had wished scarecrow
instead of pitcher on him. He
may have been a scarecrow to Nc
Graw then, but he's been night
mare to the hitters of the National
League ever since.
He's never had a losing year
and he's not going to have one
this season. When the Dodgers
started Van Mungo yesterday, Bill
Terry knew his Giants were in for
a battle, so he called on Hub. Hub
stuck a big wad of tobacco in his
jaw. grabbed a glove, Shuffled out
to the mound and stayed right
there until his buddies put over
the winning run in the twelfth to
give him a 5-to-4 decision over
Mungo. Brandt and Farmhouse,
who forced in the winning run.
Larry French, veteran left
handler of the Cubs. had the Reds
shut out until the ninth when
they scored five times to give
Derringer the nod, S } 3.
Walter Wins Another
Two reformed infielders, Bobby
Refs of the Braves and Bucky
Walter of the Phils, hooked up
in a pitching duel with the lat
ter getting the verdict, S to 2,
when Manager Jimmy Wilson
doubled with the bases loaded
in ~ the eighth.
The Pirates pounded Hallahan
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1936-05-28

and his successors to win, II to
2, and bring the Cards back into
a tie with the Giants for first
place.
In the American League, Cleve-
land slammed a quartet of st.
Louis pitchers for 81 hits and
Hildebrand breezed in. IL to 2.
The Tigers, gradually forging
to the top, edged in over the
White Sox, 3 to 2. Bridges and
Lyons each allowed six hits but
one bad inning cost the latter
three runs and the game.
The Yanks had to use four
pitchers and travel II heats to
beat the Red Sox, 9 to 8, Pear
son being returned the winner
over Cascarella who succeeded
Marcum and Walberg. Joe Di-
Maggie, the Yanks' sensational
rookie. blew himself to another
homer.
