New York Yankees, headed by
the irrepresible Babe Ruth, are un
doubtedly the most colorful aggrega
tion in the American League.
After viewing a workout followed
by a five-inning game between the
Regulars and Yanigans, I waB im
pressed by several things.
rirst, the spirit of the ball club.
There was more fire and "pep" to
the practice session than I ever Bay
the Yanks show in a regular game.
In baseball, enthusiasm for the
game overcomes many of the handi
caps that arise. The Yanks always
have had greatness, now to be aug
mented with enthusiasm.
There is a comradery on the team
that makes for harmony. Star mingles
with rookie on equal terms.
For five years the Yankees have
had the ability. The reverse of last
season appears to have supplied the
inuch-needed asset, enthusiasm.
Urban Shocker, former pitching
ace of the St, Louis Browns, secur
ed in trade for Joe Bush never look
ed better.
Shocker goes about his work with a
deriousiiCHH that in the past has been
lacking. He seems to realize that this
is bis big chance. He's no longer a
youngster.
Apparently the mo n tent he was
traded to the Yankees he began get
ting in shape. He weighs 178 pounds.
Ijast year at this time he weighed
close to 195. He works best at 175. !
Shocker is evidently bent on prov-1
ing to the world at large. St. Louis in
particular, thnt Manager , Huggins
made a wise trade.
Pitching is a great asset. At times
last season the Yanks were a bit
shy on it. If Shocker can win from
15 to 20 games, and he should, the
pennant chances of New York will be
materially increased.
There will be a keen rivalry be
tween Shocker nnd .Toe Bitsh this
summer. Pitching duels between these
two should furnish some of the best
battles of the year.
Other things I observed were: The
speed of Outfielder Karl Combs, de
spite his broken leg of last year.
The agility .shown by Everett Scott
at shortstop, who has I'dUi consecu
tive games to bis credit.
The excellent condition in which nil
the veteran stars of last son pod ap
pear to be, the pitching Htnff in par
ticular. The work of Stove O'Neill buck of
Ihe hat. lie is in splendid .uliupo. will
lie of great value in catching Shock
er, and should be n big help to Wnlly
Schang, and
The "get-there' spirit of Rob Men
set, who has as much natural ability
as any player that ever put on a pair
of spiked shoes. Baseball is a serious
proposition with Bob this year.
These thing, us well es many
others, will make it npparent to the
onlooker that the Yankees expect to
win the American League pennant
but not without a struggle.
