Statistics Reveal Gomez' Come
back, Ruffing's High Average
CHICAGO, Dec. 16 W) A quick glance down the "games
won column of the American
records, released today, shows
White Sox and Bobby Feller of
men, Feller with 23 triumphs and Lee with 22. But the statistics
reveal a dozen other heroes of the mound.
There was Vernon (Lefty) Gomel of the New York Yankees,
winner of only three of six decisions in 1940, who came back to
take IS and lose five last summer. And young Heber Newsomc
of Boston, who came within -
one triumph of reaching the 20-
games-won circle.
Veteran Charley Ruffing of
the Yankees again rated high
in the percentages with 15 wins
and six losses. Alejandro Car-
rasquel of Washington took six
of eight deci
sions, and John
ny Murphy of
the Yanks com
piled eight wins
against three
defeats, appear
ing in 35 games
principally i n
relief rolls.
Topping all
ihurlers on a
I if 7, won -lost basis
fmttlkJMni Was Norman
I Thornton Lee i Branch of the
Yanks, who
earned five victories and had
only one defeat. He worked in
27 games. Johnny Humphries
of the White Sox led the list on
an eamed-run basis, allowing
only 1.85 scores per nine in
nings pitched, but he was in
only 1 games.
Actually the leader in earned-
runs was Lee, the White Sox
lefty, who yielded 2.37 runs per
full game and worked 300 in
nings. Lee and Feller both
reached the 300-innings pitched
level, the Indians' ace hurling
343 frames. This marked the
first time since 1927. that two
American league hurlers
achieved this select circle in
the same season.
Feller pitched to the most
batters, 1254. Lee faced 1113
and Emil Leonard of Washing
