This rookie southpaw hurled two succes- ive no-hit, no-run games, a feat hat had never been accomplished in 100 years of baseball. The American league’s boy won- der is Cleveland’s Bob Feller. He blinded the batters with the speed of his fast ball late in '36. He’s still | under voting age Coast | Mel Ott, one of the few major league players who has batted a number of times against both of youngster aces, rates Van- der Meer first. “Control these makes Vander Meer a better pitcher than Feller,” says Ott, the New York Giants' third- game ' | | he has better control 8| 435 310| announced the U. S. district at- baseman. You'll remember that Ott himself was a boy wonder vears ago. He’s under 30 now and he’s been in the big leagues for 13 's. Jawn McGraw picked him up almost out of the cradle of his Louisiana home. “They're both ‘darn good pitch~ rs and I wish we had them on our club. They're about the same size. I'd say that Vander Meer now has a faster fast ball than Feller has, although it's not as fast as Feller's v've both got good curve balls. Vander Meer has a pretty fair slow ball, but he doesn't use it much. Vander Meer has more poise out there, but that's because It's that con- frol that gives you poise and con- fidence, “I guess one of them will be about as good. as the other as long as both are in the big leagues, but Vander Meer should last longer.
