PEBBLE BEACH, Calif., Sept.
7 )AU Star Special! Gen
uine baseball bugs, or fans, are
touchy individuals and some
times react violently if their
favorite player is ignored in a
selection, consequently we have
chosen an off-the-bcaten-path
spot like Pebble Beach to unveil
our 1944 Pacific Coast league
all star team . . . This is an an
nual epidemic with us and with
every visitation we sit back and
chuckle at the thought of how it
will make the baseball specialists
bristle, such as Alex Shults of
Seattle; L. H. Gregory of Port
land; Bobby Stevens of San
Francisco and Dick Edmonds of
Sacramento, real redhots.
Here is the 1944 team and let
the' chips fall where they may:

the first division and. a playoff,

seem unconstitutional but it still
goes here. , ;

league highlight . . . Tony Pier

Bv JACK HAND
Associated Press Sports Writer
Steve O'Neill popped up with
another route-going pitcher in
Rufe Gentry Wednesday night
as the Detroit Tigers moved to
within a game and a half of the
Yankees in- the American lea
gue, but the veteran Roger
"Doc" Cramer took the piny
with his .537 nine-day batting
splurge.
The Detroit club could be com
posed of two fellows named Hal
Newhouser and Dizzy Trout for
all the average fan knew but
the all important mnttcr of base
hits was being taken care of by
the 38-year-old Cramer.
Known Best for his days of
stardom with the Philadelphia
A's, Cramer has set the pace for
the Tigers with 22 hits in his
last 41 at bats, boosting his aver
age from a sub par .196 on June
IS to a soaring .280.
Pinky Higgins, Dick Wake
field, Jimmy Outlaw and Rudy
York were helping the cause but
Cramer was the most sensation
al in the club's recent surge.
The New Jersey veteran was
covering centerfield like a blan
ket, using his knowledge of the
hitters to best advantage, cut
ting off reckless base runners
with his rifle arm and perform
ing that important task of get
ting on base as the Bengals'
load-off man.
Cramer continued his spree
with a triple and single, scoring
two runs in last night's 3-2 edge
over Chicago. Gentry scattered
eight White Sox singles in his
second complete game since June
22. It was Rule's eighth win and
Johnny Humphries' ninth loss,
winding up the season series be
tween the two clubs with De
troit holding a 13-9 margin.
All other big league clubs were
idle yesterday.
