tain call.
Not in 40 years has the junior
circuit produced such a prolific
pair of tossers on the same team.
In nearly hurling the Tigers to
the pennant. Trout and New
houser racked up 56 victories,
the most by a brace of team
mates since 1904 when John B.
Chesbro (41) and John Powell
(23) of New York collaborated
for 64.
The terific Tiger two-some
Lefty Hal Newhouser with 29-9
and righlhanded Trout with
27-14 were the American
league's only 20-game winners

in strikeouts with 187, compared
with Trout's runner-up total of
144.
Actually. Joe Heving (8-3) and
Jonas Berry of Philadelphia
(10-8) had the best earned run
average at 1.95, but neither
pitched enough innings to rate
title consideration. Heving
worked 120 frames and Berry

with 2.26 was Hughson.
Newhouser placed second in
the won-loss column with a per
