But this time the one-time great out
fielder, pressing So, prefaced his familiar
account of the 1919 BLACK Sox" series, among
other stories, with a reference to Gov. Fuller
Warren of Florida "Shore was nice of the
Gov'nor to single me out t'other night,
Rousch conceded. Got big kick out of it.
But they don't get my name straight, yet"
Warren, speaking at what is called the
annual Governors dinner for ball clubs train
ing in Florida introduced Rousch as Zone
of my boyhood idols E. Eddie Rousch!!!"
There was a nice hand for Rousch, who rose

to bowl him over and did succeed
in shaking up Len, but Joost was
equally we'll jostled and. more
important. he was out.
Pavlick Fails Against Okrie.
The Giants Pete Pavlick tried
| it again yesterday and it was no
contest. In the eighth inning Paw
| lick represented the tying run on
first base when Clint Hartung
dashed long double TO left-center.
Irv Noren retrieved the ball and
fired it to Sam Dente. whose relay
to the plate was perfect.
It was obvious the play would
be close and nobody was more
aware of it than Okrie. When
Pavlick came sliding in he found
rangy, but formidable barrier
as Okrie took the ball and
applied it to Pete. Pavlick
never got within 2 feet of
the plate and keeping him at
that distance was Okrie, who
throws his weight-185 pounds
around expertly when it counts.
It's one of life's minor trag-
edies that Okrie can't hit. At the
moment he's had one hit. is bat
ting Ill, and when his next hit
is delivered it will be surprise
to all, including Len. Through a
season it's doubtful if he'd top
200. but he's showing Harris
enough defensive skill to warrant
retention.
Kuzava Also Shines.
Another scintillating performer
was Bob Kuzava, who allowed one
| tainted hit in the five innings he
pitched. That was a scratch single
by Don Mueller, which Dente mis-
played. Kuzava walked only two,
picked one of those off first base.
and nobody reached second
against him.
AL Sima, former property of
the Giants, who requested that
he be permitted to pitch against
them, received sparkling support
in his four innings. Noren. Dente
and Okrie elaborated in getting
him out of that eighth-inning jam
and with two out in the ninth
he was in trouble when Monte
Irwin and Bobby Thomson singled
successfully. The Mats outf1eld
played AL Dark shallow and Sam
Mele in left field was forced to
drift far back to haul in his deep
drive for the final out.
The Mats produced their only
run off Sheldon Jones in the Sec
|ond inning. Noren walked, shifted
Ito third on Sherry Robertson
single and scored when Third
Baseman Hank Thompson threw
out Cass Michaels.
Robertson Gets Two Hits.
Robertson, .407 hitter in ex-
Ihibltlon games, got two OF the
Mats five hits off Jones, Montia
Kennedy and George Spencer
Irwin obtained two of New York S
six hits.
/ The Mats were to tangle with
the Reds today, with Connie
Marrero and Mickey Harris slated
to pitch in a Latin American
Day" game. Cuban Sandy Con-
suegra was to miss the festivities,
having been dispatched back to
the Mats training headquarters
at Orlando with flu.
The Mats victory over the
Giants marked the seventh time
in Washington's eight games that
the outcome has been settled by
one run. Washington has won
-four of them and owns a So
record. The Mats drop down in
class tomorrow, meeting their
Chattanooga farmhands at Or
lando.
