Hagerstown's last three runs were
scored in the sixth and they all came
after two were out. After Laguna

Johnny Linde|I Due
To Return 10 Majors,
This Time as Pitcher
By the Associated Press

HOLLY WOOD, July 18.-
Johnny Lindell, long-ball hitting
outfielder for the New York Yam
KEGS a few seasons ago, may be
heading back to the major leagues
AS pitcher.
Reliable sources disclosed today
that at least three clubS-the
Yankees, Cleveland and the Bos-
ton Red Sox-are interested in
the big right-hander whose Ia
mound victories and deadly hit
ting have been major factors in
the Hollywood clubs drive to the
top of the Pacific Coast League,
Lindell, a 220-pounder. who
stands 6 feet AZ, admitted he had
heard "rumors."
Just rumors," he said, without
identifying the sources. They
sound swell, of course. Makes a
buy feel good at 35 to hear he's
even being considered as a major
ACdS uC PluSCA'
American League fans know
Lindell mainly as a power in the
Yankee outfield for most of his
eight years up there, a giant of a
guy who played in three World
Series, and in one, 1947, batted
500 in a personal triumph over
Brooklyn.
His eighth-inning home run on
the next to the last day of the
1949 season beat the Red Sox and
kept the Yankees in a position to
win the pennant the next after
noon.
Lindell still is dangerous at bat,
and his knuckleball, abetted by a
good curve and a fast ball, has
dealt misery out here all season.
Last Sunday, for instance, he
held Joe Gordon's Sacramento
club to four hits for IL innings
and won the game with a three
run homer.
He's the best in the league"

Allie Reynolds, who had pitched

out of the box in the twilight

Indians rocked Allie for six runs

Little Bobby Shantz turned in a
Six-hitter for Philadelphia against
the st. Louis Browns to win his

Browns won the opener, 9-5, when
Pitcher Tommy Byrne hit two sim

The Red Sox didn't know they

Spec Shea CHALLENGES
Jensen for Spotlight
AS Best Of Ex-Yanks
By Burton Hawkins

It's a debate the Mats can't
lose, but there's some question
now whether Outfielder Jackie
Jensen is the most valuable per-
former among the players OBJ
tanned from the Yankees in ex-
change for Irv Noren. Pitcher
Spec Shea is strong challenger.
Bucky Harris doesn't care to
participate in such a discussion.
The Mats boss is only too happy
to have Jackie batting .304 and
Shea possessing a 90 pitching
record. In fact, he's hoping the
argument gets to the sizzling
point, with both of the New York
discards continuing to provide
conversational fodder.
The chunky Shea was in the
spotlight again today as the re-
suit of his 10 five-hit conquest
of the Tigers last night for his
sixth consecutive win. Shea
scored the winning run on Jim
Busby's single with one out in
the ninth to nose out Hal New
houser. who also pitched a Ave
hitter.
Gumpert to Pitch.
With the Browns invading to-
night for the opener of a four
game series. Bucky is looking to
another reject to deliver. Randy
Gumpert, victorious only over St.
Louis in five starts since he came
here from Boston. will get an
other crack at them. Stubby
Overmire is due to start for the
Browns and will be the fifth
straight left-hander to oppose the
Mats.
Making a gallant comeback after
four seasons of futility with the
Yankees and their farm clubs.
Shea has a string of Is scoreless
innings, a highly creditable 2.08
earned run average, four low-score
Itriumphs by a margin of one run
and two ShutoutS.
Spec has at least one win over
every team except the Yankees.
