a2 —~SPORTS. Hailed Greatest First Year Infielder of HONORS GIVEN NAT * ROOK BY GRFTH Buddy Is Finest Youngster League Ever Picked Up, 0ld Fox Claims. BY FRANCIS E. STAN, . 8 FAR as the sports-page head- lines were ‘ concerned, John (Buddy)' Lewis tailed off to a comparatively forgotten young man when the close of the American League base ball race was spun. He was the darling of ‘the writing boys in March and April, when he batted nearly .500 in Spring exhibition games. To the amazement of all, including the same writing boys, he carried on 1n his initial 'season as a major leaguer during the first four months, batting, for a time, in the neighborhood of .375. Then he began to tail off and when the Natlonals roared down the stretch and were battling for a money position the veteran Ossie . Bluege had his innings on third base. Some regarded 1t is significant, but to kibitzers on the ideas and .plans of President Clark Griffith and Manager Bucky Harris it didn't mean a thing. ©One of the positions Griffith is not ‘worrying about these days, when big- league club owners and managers are spending their time mulling over pos- sible improvements, is third base. “The only reason why Buddy didn't finish,” says Harris, “is that the kid was just plain tired. It was natural. After all, when you're 19 years old you haven't the stamina of a matured man. We happened to be fortunate in having s fellow like Bluege ready to step into the line-up when Lewis tired and there was nothing else to do ex- eept to play Ossie.” Can Do Many Things Well. GRIPP’ITH is not given to overstate- | e, ment, but in Lewis’ case he is willing to go overboard. “Thére never was any doubt in my mind that Lewis’ would make good,” the Old Fox was saying the other day. “Now Ill go farther than that. Actually the boy surprised me by doing more than I expected. “He didn't flop. Buddy finished the season with a .292 average. The fact that he batted close to .400 for a time ‘was misleading. No rookie figures to bat anywhere near that much. Con- sequently, when his average slipped a bit people took more notice of it.” “If it will serve to prove my faith in the boy, I'll say this much,” he added. “‘As long as I've been in base ball I've never seen an inflelder who looked s0 good in his first year as a big leaguer. Bear in mind, now, that Lewis can do & lot of things. He can hit and will hit -even better.. He has good pair of hands and he will field better. He's smart and he's fast. The | fact that ‘Buddy was one of the best | base runners on the club this year, incidentally, was overlooked aplenty.” Best Nat First-Year Man. SUMM!D up, this is a broad state- ment for a conservative like Grif- fith. The Old Fox's memory of ball players goes back a long wsy. When the American League first was or- ganized, for instance, Griffith had a finger in the ple. He's seen them come and go and right at -Griffith Stadium he.has developed infielders to whom comparison is indeed & trib- ute in itself. For one, thers is Bluege and, for another, Harrls. 8till another is Joe Cronin. And over them all, at this stage of their respective careers, Grif- fith gives Lewis the edge. “As & hitter he stands out over Bluege. and Harris,” asserts Griffith. “Cronin was a& good fielder from the time he first joined the Washington club, but he was no better, de- fensively, than Lewis. At bat Cronin hit only about 257 in his first year here.” In view of the praise dished out by Griff and Bucky, it begins to look as if the fact that Lewis was overlooked n the late season was the fault of folk other than Buddy himself. In the final analysis, after records of all rookie infielders are surveyed, you have to put down John Kelly. Lewis, Jr., as the outstanding infleld recruit of the major league season. —_— BAGGETT’S FIELD TO GO Celts Must Give Up Lease on 0ld Alexandria Grounds. Mpeeis] Dispatch to The Star. ALEXANDRIA, Va.
