American League Games
Called 'Amateur Night'
New York, May 24 Wj It was amateur night In the American
league.
The Yankeei and Browns set the tempo when they staged a
wheelbarrow pushing contest between blind-folded players and a
pepper game in which raw eggs were substituted for baseballs as a
prelude to their game at Yankeei
Major Standings
stadium. Apparently, the play
era forgot to hear the umpire:
holler "play ball" and kept right
on with their Sunday school pic
nic antics once the game was
underway
The Yankees won, 10 to 3, with
a 13-hit display, but not until the
, fans had witnessed one of the
weirdest games Imaginable. A
j first inning three-run homer by
'Tommy Henrich, his eighth of
the year, was professional
enough, but there was much that
was amateurish thereafter. The
! Browns made three errors and
two wild pitches, the Yankees
one error and one wild pitch.
1 In the fifth, Yogi Berra was
apparently safe at first on a wild
throw by Brownie Third Base-
man Bob Dillinger. Suddenly
first base Umpire Bill Grieve re
versed his decision and called
I Berra out. Neither Berra nor
First Baseman Jack Graham had
touched the bag and he had to
hold his final decision on the
play in abeyance until somebody
touched the bag.
Seconds later Bobby Brown,

Brownie Manager Zach Taylor,
who just couldn t take It any
longer, was ejected from the
game for protesting decisions
in the fourth inning.
It was just as whacky in Phil

DiMaggio Status
Still Uncertain
After Workout
New York, May Zi'tl The
status of Joe DiMaulo today
remained as uncertain as ever.
Nobody knows just when
the famous convalescent of
the New York Yankees will
be able to play. Even Joe re
fuses to hazard a fuess.
One thin( is certain he is
not ready right now. Not even
for pinch hittint purposes.
The $90,000 slugger donned
a uniform yesterday for the
first time since he re-injured
his ailing right heel last April
11. He engaged in a half
hour's batting practice ses
sion. Then he shagged flies for
10 minutes. The net result
a handful of blisters and sore
back muscles from swinging
at too many pitches.
Because of that be will not
take any bitting practice this
afternoon. But he hopes to
get in a little fielding practice.
Things were a little more or
thodox in the afternoon games.
Ellis Kinder of the Red Sox
pitched a five-hit shutout, one of
the best games of his career, In
defeating the Tigers, 4 to 0, in
Boston.
The Braves, in the only Na
tional league game scheduled,
took over sole possession of first
place with an 11 to 4 victory
over the Cubs at Chicago as Ver
non Bickford breezed to his sixth
victory.
