In his 131,"1 season in the big show with the! White Sox, the 34-year-old mounds- | man is setting the pace for tossers in the American league with 11| victories to show against 3 de- feats. Lyons' career m the majors is studded with many pitching gems— | as well as a fair share of disap- pointments. He stepped into base- | ball's hall of fame in 1926, when| he set down the Boston Red Sox | without a single hit. Three times ‘he wound up the season with more than 20 victories to his credit. In 1925 he had 21; in 1927, 22; and in 1930, also 22. A truly remark-| able record when you consider that | it was achieved with a team suf- fering from a chronic cellar com- plex. Just as he has hit the high spots | 50, too, has Ted felt the pangs of | fatlure. In 1933 he was charged with 21 defeats, more than any| other pitcher on the circult that season. He finished last season with 11 wins against 13 losses, to finish 47th on the list rated on the earmed run averages and 39th in games won percentages. Early in the season the White Sox veteran was overshadowed by the sensational pace cut out by Johnny Whitehead, but as the sea- son wore on ‘the rookie’s curves became less and’ less of a puzzle and it was then that fans began to ‘notice the grand job Lyons was doing to keep the White Sox going at' a pace that has continued to und the experts.
