Sizzling Red Sox Add Two Wins To Move Up To Within Half Game Of Fourth Place Cy THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Frank Sullivan looks like one pent who's making a bum out of the sophomore jinx, developing in to the ace of the Boston Red Sox mound staff almost overnight A year ago, the 25-year-old right hander was just a newcomer pull ed out of the bullpen and pushed into a starting job to fill the gap left when Mel Parnell suffered a broken wrist. Now he's one of cnly three American League pitchers to have won 10 games this year and has a string of 23 score less innings working while holding the No. 1 spot for the Bosox. That's where Sullivan, 6-6'4 and weighing 21S, left off in 1954. He wound up his first full major league season with a 15-12 record.

Or that for one season, 1885, it was permissible la flatten the bat on one side? Or that only in 1887 did a base on balls count as a base hit? We didn't either until, looking up something else in the late Hy Turkin's "Baseball Almanac" for 1955, we ran into section listing all the important rules changes made since the game took some thing resembling Us present form and spent a happy and fascinated half - hour getting a few things straightened out. For example, we have heard and seen written many timet that when Hugh Duffy of Boston set his all time batting record of .438 in 1894 many of his "hits" were, actually, only walks. Well, evidently this simply wasn't true If the rule was in effect only the one year, 1887, Tell you what the great Duffy did have going for him, though. It wasn't until the year after his Homeric feat, in 1895, that a foul tip became a strike, and not until 1901 did the National League rule that balls which fell safely outside the foul lines were strikes. The American League didn't folow suit until 1903. From 1871 until 1887 the batter was permitted to demand that the pitcher give him either a high or a low ball to hit at, but it was not until 1884, nearly 40 years aft er the first rules were formulated, that pitchers were allowed to fire overhanded. Not until 1891 was it permissible to send in, a substitute after the fourth inning. Evidence that the bean ball has been with us for some time is seen in an 1881 ordinance declaring that a pitcher shall be fined "for hit ting a batter deliberately." They must have found it a very thorny matter in those days too for the rule lasted only one season. FIGHT TONIGHT VANCOUVER, B.C.
