Four of eight games were decided that way yesterday. In the last half of the final inning, Dicky Medwick, longtime National loop batting leader, waited for the psy- chological minute then popped his twenty-first homer against the left field te to win for the Cards, after the Giants had rallied to tie the score following the Cardinals’ eight-run blast wkich drove Hub- bell to the showers.

Sport Slants Lou Fette came up to the Boston Bees with a fine pitching record compiled with St. Paul of the Amer- ican Association. Fette pitched 28! complete games and won 25, led the AA. in victory percentages, com- plete games, innings pitched (291), and in several other departments. Yet he did not impress Beekeeper Bill McKechnie. The Boston man- ager could mot overlook the fact that Fette had celebrated his 30th birthday and had been knocking around the minor leagues for 10 years, Too many ball players who have put in long service in the minors have acquired minor league habits (which hurt their chances of making the grade in the big league. Fette proved different. The right- handed veteran-rookie has been the Bees’ big winner, boasting ten vic- tories against three losses at the season’s halfway mark. He had beaten every team on the National circuit with the exception of the New York Giants. -He had faced the Giants only in relief roles. The Boston ace had four shut- outs to his credit. He was forced to ’Brooklyn, he went 12 innings be- |fore driving in the winning run with his own bat. Fette thrives on work. warmer or spot-picker. He takes his turn and faces whatever oppo- sition comes along. With St. Paul {last year he took part in 38 con- tests. The year before he broke into the box scores 43 times. Curiously enough, he was rated ja better basketball player baseball player in the three years he attended Missouri Valley college. He started his professional base- {ball career by winning 20 games |for Pueblo in 1928, as a Kansas City {farmhand. He was with the Kansas [City Blues until mid--season of 1933 when he was traded to St. Paul. MILWAUKEE LAD TAKES DECISION, ST.

Home runs prov~! to be the chief weapon of the Rockets, while three hurlers, Clarence Rands, Howard Dilg and Ralph Moreau formed the front line of their defense in last night's practice tilt. Among the cijeuit smacks credited to the Rockets was the truly mighty blow that soared off the bat of Sher- wood Wirt, sprightly shortstop. The eight performers on hand to make up the Rockets were: Clar- ence Rands, p.; Ralph Moreau, c.; George Bailey, 1b.; George Schmidt, 2b.; M. J. Whittier, 3b.; Sherwood Wirt, ss.; Howard Dilg, If; Ralph Rieck, rf. ( The next practice tussle set for the softballers is to be held next Monday evening, when the Rockets face off against the Evergreen Bowl All-Stars, to be followed Tuesday evening by a warm-up between the Miners and the Federals.
