Answer

The song is over,
but the melody fingers
on!
The 1887 Au-Star
game today is history,
but the refrain is still
fresh in the minds Of
tn e partisans W h o
pirate of the super
iority of this league
and that.
ALI of which is most Incl
dental in the grand scheme Of
things. The important item is
that Washington saw a really
great ball game between two Sc
rious ball clubs, both Of which
were in there giving all they
had at the moment. No one
could ask more.
One single ball game does not
necessarily establish the superior
ity of one league over the other,
but If 10000 odd souls are thrilled
by the spectacle of eight and one
half innings of ball play, and
myriad of thousands of distant
observers are quickened by the re-
mote control details, then say
the effect is exhilirating, no mat
ter where ones sentiments may
rest.
A National Topic
The fact that the nation paused
for two hours and a half from its
labor and its strife to turn an ear
to the great leveling influence Of
the national pastime is recon-
pense enough.
It is SurceaSe enough from the
cares Of these mundane times to
demonstrate to us all that petty
differences are most incidental in
the larger scale, and that after ali,
when we can meet on the COM
mon ground of craftsmanship,
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-07-08

indeed there is human tie that
should be all-abiding, win, lose or
draw.
Who can say that today, or to-
morrow, the American League
could turn back the National
League, as it did yesterday?
And what of it!
What like about the whole at.
fair, is that the American League
went into the fray the underdog,
and emerged victorious. That
seems to me to be the spirit of the
land, now as always. Everybody
has a chance, no matter what his
pursuit may be. and in sport this
golden rule is unyielding.
PoWer Us. Pitching
Pitching superiority has popu-
larly been supposed to have re.
posel with the National League in
recent seasons, what with the great
proves of the Dizzy Deans and the
Carl Hubbells, but in a one-game
set.to or a short world series, con.
centrated power at the plate has
so out-done effectiveness on the
mound that the result has been
little short of disarming.
Thus we observe that well-timed
hitting against the cleverest Of
pitching has upset the best-laii
plans of baseball StrategistS, and
resulted in achievement for the
rough, one might say uncouth
raw, inherent power of the younger
league which for thirty-odd years
has dared to vie with the paren:
body of major league baseball.
Who was there Of the $4,000
people who populated Griffith
Stadium yesterday, that cringed
for a moment at the fire-ball of
Dizzy Dean or the screw-ball of
Carl Hubbell?
After that pair was subdued

to go in there swinging, particu-

PoWer Tells Tale
And therein my friends, you find
the main difference in the two
teams which vent their fury in
Yesterdays baseball Utopia. Their

far as the figures are concerned,

Yankees Power
Too Much For
N. |. Stars
BY GARRY SCHUMACHER
International News Service Sports
Writer

International News Service Sports
Writer
Whatever else it may have dem
onstrated or revealed, the Ameri-
can Leagues newest All-star tri-
umph definitely classified and
labeled the 1887 Yankees.
It identified them as one of the
truly great teams of baseball his"
tory-won for them a ranking
with that other Yankee power
trust of 1927, the tabled orioles
of John McGraws' youth and the
mud-spuattered White Sox OF scan
dalous memory.
How could one game award this
distinction? Because of the COM
parsons it provided and the test
ing quality OF the competition,
All the great players of the two
major leagues were assembled
here, the superstars of the base
ball planetarium-and yet the
Yankees made it their own private
show.
Five Yankees
The five Yankees who carried
the American League standard
Gehrig, Gomez, DiMaggio, Dickey
and Rolfe-not only overwhelmed
the National LeaguerS with their
brilliance and strength of their
performance but dominated and
excelled the play of their own
teammates.
It was Yankee batting power
that spread destruction upon the
Griffith Stadium greensward: it
was Yankee pitching in the per-
son of Vernon eel Goof" Gomez
that alone achieved "all,Star"
quality; and it was Yankee de-
fensive talent as exemplified by
Joe DiMaggio's rifle shot peg to
the home plate that throttled
the National Leagues one oppor-
tunity to climb into the competi-
ton. The Yankees, not the
league. won this one. And in a
manner that defied any team to
beat them.
Extra Base Hits
Charley Gehringer, Joe Cronin,
Sammy West and Earl Averill,
the other members of the Amer
lean League cast, performed
deeds of valor throughout the
long afternoon, yet those who
were present caught the impress.
sion the absent Yankees would
have done just as well. Certainly
the result wouldn't have been
different. =,
Extrabase power, the weight
and authority of the Yankee bats,
explains the 8-to-3 score, OF course.
Gehrig's home run and two-bagger,
Rolfe's triple and Dickey'S two
Dagger, all of them produced IN
situations where they were possible
third outs, drove home seven OF
the eight American League runs:
The National LeaguerS collected
IS hits themselves, but only Joe
Medwick was able to exert extra
base pressure. Terry'S team needed
three and four hits to score; the
Yanks, pardon. the American
Leaguers never required more than
one.
The National LeaguerS could
have won only if Dizzy" Dean
and Carl Hubbell had been able
to put their full pitching equip
ments on display. Neither could.
Deans control was faulty, pos
sibly because he had to exercise
such care with every pitch, and
it was a three-and-two fast ball,
must under the circumstances,
that Gehrig belted over the fence.
AS for Hubbell-he simply didn't
have it.
