The Yankees not only stake their world championship banner in t year's baseball campaign but car- | ry over two other distinctions into the new season, to wit (1) a r ord now standing at 211 con tive games withcut being shut out and (2) playing streak, which reached 1197 games at the close of 1932. Strange as it may seem, it is nevertheless a fact that the Bos- ton Red Sox, with whom the Yan- kees opened the American League race, were the last club out the Ruppert Rifles and the pitcher registering this achieve- ment was none other than old Wilcy (Cy) Moore, the sinker-ball man from Boneta, Texas. Moore blanked the Yankees, 1 to | 0, in the second game of a double- header at Boston on August 2, 1931. Old Cy had staged a come- back with the Red Sox that year. after being shipped to St. Paul by | the Yankees. Whether this feat impressed Manager Joe McCarthy or not, he seized an opportunity to regain Moore’s services in a trade a year later and used him effectively in a relief role up to and including the last world series. Walberg Last to Do It The Yankees have been shut out on their home grounds only once in the past three seasons. ® That singular circumstance develcped one July afternoon when George (Rube) Walberg, giant left-hander of the Athletics, applied the white- wash with his blinding speed and sweeping curve ball. Grove and Earnshaw have been unable to do it. Wes Ferrell, great Cleveland right hander, twice came within a run of blanking the Yankees on their own proving grounds. It's possible, of course, to spike some of the big Yankee guns some of the time, but silencing all of them over any given nine-inning stretch is strictly a job for the Army and Navy.
