TERRY WRITERS.
AGAIN AT ODDS.
AS GIANTS LOSE.
BY LAWTON CARVER

international News Service Sports Editor
NEW YORK, July 28-Manager
Bill Terry of the Giants today
again was enjoying one of his
annual open seasons on sports
writer's as his club continued to
progress, in reverse right, out of
the National League pennant race.
The sports writers in turn were
enjoying an open season on Terry
with the result that we now have
one big happy baseball family
around here. Nobody has been
slugged yet-but give us time.
BY nature a hard loser, Terry
prefers not to be bothered when
his team is going badly and right
now he is preferring not to be
bothered five times over, for yes
terday the Giants dropped their
fifth straight and with that fell
five games behind the pace-setting
Pittsburgh Pirates in the race to-
ward the world series.
"HAPPY FAMILY"
The upshot of it all is that prac-
tically nobody is speaking to any
body else. The only apparent
unanimity is found in the belief
that the Giants positively will
blow the pennant this time. Or
is that premature, with two
months to go? 1t seems to me
that we were saying that along
about this time in 1886 and again
last year without noticeably de-
terring the Giants.
Anyhow, they are losing right
now and looking none too good
doing it. The st. Louis Cardinals
gave it to them yesterday py 7
to 0 behind the four-hit pitching
of Lon Warneke and with the
aid of three errors. That didn't
help the Cards any because they
are beyond help, but it did help
the Pirates, who beat the Phila-
delphia Phillies, 4 to 2, and the
Chicago Cubs. The latter lost a
night game to the Brooklyn
Dodgers, 3 to 2, but didn't yield
any ground to the second-place
Giants.
THE DIAGNOSIS
In a few words, here is what
is wrong with the Giants: They
are not hitting too well, they are
getting pitching that falls short
of the sensational and they are
not fielding at all. Aside from
that they are playing jam-up ball.
The kind that will get you a
second division berth any time.
In the only other National
League contests, the Cincinnati
Reds were turned back twice, first
by old Danny Macfayden, to 0,
then by Lou Fette, S to l, in a
double-header with the Boston
Bees. Both Bee hurlers allowed
only five hits.
The Yankees continued to set
the pace at 11a games ahead of
the Cleveland Indians in the
American League by beating the
st. Louis Browns, 7 to 5, in the
first game of twin bill. The
second was rained out.
The Washington times., 1938-07-28

final game of their series with the
Tigers, the Mats will oppose the
pitching of George Gill like this:
Case, right field.
Lewis, third base.
Wright, left field.
Bonura, first base.
Travis, Shortstop.
West, center field.
Bluege, second base.
Rick Ferrell, catcher.
West, you'll note, has been re-
duced to sixth place in the bat
ting order as the direct result of
his recent batting failures. Yes
terday, typifying his batting in
recent games, he left men
stranded at third base upon three
occasions.
Taft Wright, batting in the
cleanup position. is not a perma-
nent fixture in the lineup. Harris
has observed that Wright is of
most value as a pinch-hitter
