Yankees May Break Every Major RecordB POST RUN-MAKING MARK IN DOWNING | WHITE SOX, 7 70 Cardinals’ 1930 Record Goes by Boards Already, With Several Games Left NATIONALS RAINED OUT Homicide § Squad Has Even Tied) Three-Homers-in-One-In- ning Record (By the Associated Press) From the looks of things, the fel- lows who keep the record books are going to do a lot of overtime work) when this big league baseball season ends, trying to catch up with those runaway Yankees, { It’s going to be a man’s size job of revising to jot down the exploits of just about the greatest crew of record- bréakers the business has ever known. Not satisfied with the dozen or so} marks the’ve already shattered as a team, and the other various ones in- dividuals seem on the way to break- ing, the homicide squad is going right along smeshing new ones about every | other day. | TUESDAY'S STARS | Hal Trosky, Indians—Hit two || homers and drove in seven runs || against Red Sox. | George Selkirk, Yankees—Hit two doubles and single, driving in two | runs, against White Sox. | | Joe Kuhel and Buck Newsom, Senators—Former’s single and two doubles sent three runs across in twin bill opener; Newsom stopped |} Browns with one hit in nightcap. |) Schoolboy Rowe, Tigers—Helped || win his own ball game against Ath- || letics with two-run double. Have Made 1,016 Runs 1 Only last Sunday, they eclipsed the | home run and extra base records. | Since then, they’ve already posted aj new run-making mark by a pennant-! winning club, piling up the amazing} total of 1,016 tallies to surpass the 1,004 the championship Cardinals of 1930 compiled. While the hot National League; fight took a day off Tuesday, rain washing out the entire program and giving the Giants a rest before they pick up the job of preserving their 4% game lead, the Yanks advanced a step nearer a couple more marks by banging three White Sox pitchers for @ 7-1 victory. Others May Go As 8 result, the record for extra base wallops, runs batted in, total bases, and a few others may go before the season ends, Already behind the ball-killing crew, in addition to the homer and extra base records, are such others as most runs-batted-in in one game, most homers in two conse- cutive games, most years leading the league in homers, most years and most consecutive years with 100 or more homers, and a tie with the tough one of the three homers in one ‘There's a very good chance, too, that they'll post a new league mark for the biggest lead by a pennant winner over the rest of the pack— their victory Tuesday having left them only a game and a half away from it. And, by clinching the Amer- ican League flag a week ago Wednes- Gay, they took the title on the earliest, date in league history, so far as avail- able records show. Pitcher Injured Their victory Tuesday came close to being a heart-breaker, through in- jury to Monte Pearson, the No. 1 hurler. Larry Rosenthal, Sox out- fielder, stepped on his right ankle in beating out a hit in the eighth in- ning, causing a painful hurt, but ex- amination disclosed he'll be back in a few days. ‘The Senators regained sole posses- sion of third place with a double- header win over the Browns. They ded out a 19-hit, 13-7 triumph in the opener, and Buck Newsom pitched @ one-hit, 6-1 edge in the nightcap, which was cut to seven innings by THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1936 ‘Doctors Fighting to CROWN NEW U.
