Rogers Hornsby has the old fellow ready to wrap up his whiskers, toss away his scythe and give up. The Sage of St. Louis stayed on the bench for all but two games last, year and Pop figured the Rajah, at 4# and with 22 years in the big-time back of him, was all washed up. &o Hornsby, the “granddaddy” of big league baseball, stepped up to the plate Wednesday, banged out a homer and two singles, and generally was there in the clutch as his Brown- ies opened their 1937 baseball wars with a 15-10 clouting conquest of the highly regarded Chicago White Sox. Wednesday's Stars Harland Clift, Billy Knicker- bocker, Rogers Hornsby, Browns— Clift hit home, two doubles, two singles; Knickerbocker Head two doubles, two singles, drove in four runs; Hornsby hit homer, two singles, in 15-10 victory over White Sox. ‘The one victory didn’t change the status of the Browns in this year’s ‘American League race. They held the day’s spotlight, largely because all the other clubs in both leagues were rained out, but they remain 100 to 1 shots in any book, strictly because the Brownie pitching staff is any- thing but that. In addition to his batwork Hornsby played an errorless nine innings at second base, but it was the big stick he wielded, -and ‘the definite evi- dence that he’s still the shrewdest trader in the business that stole the show. In his Browns’ lineup were: Short- stop Billy Knickerbocker, Outfielder Joe Vosmik and Pitcher Oral Hilde- brand, all obtained from the Cleve- land Indians this winter in exchange for Lyn Lary, Jule Solters and Ivy a Paul Andrews. Knickerbocker led the way with two doubles and a pair of singles, driving in four runs, Hilde-| ed brand, although giving up 17 hits, went the route and contributed a two-run double to the 22-hit barrage. Both leagues settled down to the grind again Thursday, with’an eight- game schedule.
