QUALITY SINCE 1887 Double Play History Is Being Made on Hustlers Boudreau and Madck AP Feature Service CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug.2l.—Lou Boudreau and Ray Mack have a good chance to write their names in double-play history as successors to baseball’s famed Joe Tinker and Johnny Evers. ‘That's the joint opinion of Tris Speaker, himself one of the game's all-time greats, and Bill Wamby, cld-time second baseman who man- ufactured for Cleveland in 1920 the only unassisted triple play ever made in a World Series. “They are comparable with any combination I've ever seen—and that includes Tinker and Evers” declares Speaker, who once chased the outfield for the Indians. They Study Plays “I was talking with Connie Mack the other day and he said they were the best he had ever seen, be ise both had great arms plus everything else they nee The 46-year-old Wamby that “if Boudreau and Mack stick together they are going places be- constantly “happening’ to be in 2 pairs 1.45 says 1.00—1.35 * "cause they are of a mind to study double plays more than most ins fielders would “Roger Peckinpaugh and Bucky Harris probably were every bit vod as Tinker and E but, didn’'t play together long enough. Double plays weren't enough. of a novelty, with. Tinker. and Evers in the public mind, for they most people to attach much im- | portance to it.” Shortstop Boudreau and Sec= ond-Baseman Mack have helped keep the Indians in the American ‘L«-ugur pennant race and their |own names on the lips of fans. Two inches taller than Tinker but somewhat lighter, 22-years old Boudreau smoothly applies to baseball the skidding-stopping techs nique he picked up as a Big Tem basketball star at the University of Tllinois. Y Mack Surprises Mack § Mack surprises even himself by the right place at the right time. Taller and 60 pounds heavier than Evers, the 23-year-old former Cleve- land football fullback goes either. way for the ball and snhaps it away quickly even when off balance. Wamby, who turns up talenf for the New York Yankees when he isn't acting as a shipping clerk for a chain of Cleveland gro= ceries, would like to find a pair like Boudreau and Mack. Cleveland second-sacker of 20 years ago who shortened his name from Wambsganss to make things easier for all concerned, also has a finger in his employer’s program of back= ing championship games among me 175 sandlot teams.
