THERE was great deal of post
arristice mirth among the Yankees
at the expense Of Dizzy Dean. who
pitched the home run ball to Gehrig
that practically settled the ball game
But Bill Dickey spoke word in DIS
defense.
Hes all right, fine pitcher" said
Mr.. Dickey. "Of course, I got lot of
fun out Of seeing Gehrig knock his
block off. Gehrig was cunning for
Dean. He wanted to get his hit off
Dizzy If it killed him. and he did. It
was quite poke But if Diz hadn't
tried to throw that fast one past
Gehrig, he might have come through
with shutout. He's a real good
pitcher"
