LINE DRIVE INURES DIZZY DEAN, CARDS BEATEN BY CHICAGO Pirates Wallop Reds, 12-6; Dodgers Shell Phillies, 13-3, in National RED SOX TRIM YANKS, 1-0 Ferrell and Gomez Engage in Mound Duel; Indians Triumph Over Browns, 2-1 (By the Associated Press) Old father time, it appears, will be lucky to get even a draw with George Herman Ruth. Overshadowing all other develop. ments as the major league baseball season got away to a halting start in frigid weather Tuesday were the amazing exploits of the portly, aging Babe. An injury to Jerome (Dizzy) Dean, remarkable pitching by a half dozen established stars, heavy hitting at Cincinnati and — Philadelphia—all these faded into the background as the mighty Ruth, called into the Na- tional League to lead the Boston Braves out of the financial wilder- ness, squared accounts with Carl Hub- bell, slender southpaw of the New York Giants. Facing the lefthander for the first time since the all-star game last sum- mer when he went. down swinging, at a third strike, Ruth smacked Hubbell for a single, and a home run to ac- count for the Braves’ runs in 6 4-2 victory over the Giants. That was what 25,000 braved pneumonia to see Babe didn’t let them down Babe Spears Line Drive They hadn't expected, however, the! 41-year old home run master to star afield but his sensational glove-hand catch of Hubbell’s low liner in the fifth saved Ed Brandt and the Braves some embarrassment. Brandt gave up only five hits but it was definitely the Babe's day. At Chicago, the world champion St Louis Cardinals saw their pennant as- pirations almost come to grief on the first day of the campaign. A line drive from Freddy Lind- strom’s bat struck Dizzy Dean on the left leg, just above the ankle, in the first inning and the great highthand- er was carried off the field. An X-ray showed no broken bones, but the Dizzy one probably will be out for a week nursing a severe bruise. _. The Cubs nicked Dizzy for one run befoge he was rendered hors de com- bat, added two more off Bud Tinn- ing im the second and scored what proved to be the winning run in a 4-3 victory off Rey Harrell in the eighth. \ Hartnett Hits Homer Gabby Hartnett took care of the Cubs’ attack with a home run, double and single while Lon Warneke stag-/ gered the route although tagged for 12 hits. Only 15,500 braved the weather to see this battle Rounding out the full National ‘League program, the Pittsburgh Pi- rates concentrated a 14-hit attack in two big innings to whip the Cincin- nati Reds, 12-6 while Waite Hoyt kept the Reds pretty well in control, much to the displeasure of 27.000 Redland fans, At Philadeiphia, only 3,000 saw the Brooklyn Dodgers shell lies, 13-3 behind Van Mungo’ hit pitching. The biggest crowd of the day, 287, swarmed into the Yankee stad- yum to see a brilliant pitching duel between Wes Ferrell, veteran right- hander of the Boston Red Sox, and Vernon (Goofy) Gomez, slim south- paw of the Yankees Ferrell, in mid-season form, gave the Ruth-less Yankees only two hits, faced only 29 men and won, 1-0. Gomez, losing to the Red Sox for the first time in his career. was nicked for only six hits but an error by Lou Gehrig permitted the winning run to score in the sixth. Harder Beats Newsom ‘The only other American League game produced a fine pitching duel at &t. Louis between Mel Harder of the Cleveland Indians and Buck Newsom of the Browns. Glen Myatt’s double finally broke this up with a double in the 14th that gave the Indians a 2-1 triumph. Harder allowed only eight hits, Newsom 12.
