Interest Chills in All-Star Game : Nats Need Left-on-Base Cure <+ RETURN GONTEST 10 FANG, IS PLEA Pilots Have Done No Better | Job Naming Teams Than Did Customers. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, June 30.—Joe Mc- Carthy and Will Terry have nominated their teams for the one game world series in Washington, July 7, and I cannot see where they possibly have improved upon the selections of the fans who voted for the all-star squads in each of the four previous contests. The choice of the all-star squads ‘was taken away from the fans this year because the two leagues no Jonger could tolerate the idea that the game was an exhibition rather than a contest. It was the one oc- casion on which the fans of the coun- try could vote for their favorites, but the leagues were of the opinion that the customers picked too many “dead” ones and that the managers could do 8 better job. So, you find Joe McCarthy choosing Lefty Grove, Wes Ferrell and Tommy Bridges, who have been no great shakes this year, and you find Bill Terry nominating Dizzy Dean, Carl Hubbell and Van Mungo, three who would have led the National League list had the fans been permitted to ballot. Might Differ on Appling. THE only American League inflelder about whom the fans might have differed with Manager McCarthy is Luke Appling, the White Sox short stop and league batting champion last season. McCarthy picked Joe Cronin of Boston, which is quite all right except that Appling receives no recog- nition for leading the American League in hitting over the 1936 cam- paign. The outfield represents a good popular concensus, so McCarthy's genius differs little from the voice of the fans. Terry's selections meet with pop- ular approval save that he has no | third baseman on his squad. Terry has named three shortstops for his team, Bill Jurges of the Cubs, Dick Bartell of the Giants and Arky Vaughan of the Pirates. one of the shortfielders must play third base and the choice likely will fall to Vaughan, unless by chance ‘Terry intends playing Burgess White- head, the New York second baseman, at that position. The National League looks to have the better squad on pitching alone. Terry oan use Dean, Hubbell and Munge over the nine innings, with a good chance that the American side will do little or nothing in the way of hitting. In previous games the Americans never took any undue lib- erties with Dean or Hubbell, and this year Mungo is pitching exceptionally well. On the season's records, none of the American League pitchers can match Dean, Hubbell or Mungo. Clift Should Get Call. WHAT McCarthy will do with three first basemen is problematical. In past games, Jimmy Foxx usually has moved over to third base, but with Rolfe and Clift, two regulars at that job, on hand, he cannot very well again introduce Foxx at the hot | turn. Clift is batting magnificently | for the Browns and is a much better flelder than Foxx, 0, on form, should | | get the first call, | The infleld of Gehrig, Greenberg or Foxx and Gehringer, Cronin and CIlift is & peach, but little better than one made up Collins, Herman, Jurges and Vaughan. The outfields are about even, and there is little to choose be- tween the catchers. But the pitching will start the Nationals off with an | advantage, and pitching is the thing in this game. The Nationals have won only one out of four all-star games, but at this range have a fine chance to grab the 1937 presentation. | The game in Washington will be a sellout, but taking the choice of teams away from the fans has chilled na- | tional interest. If the major leagues are alive to public sentiment, they | will give the game back to the fans | next season. Arch Ward, originator | of the game, intended it to be a spec- tacle rather than a deadly serious contest, and it was the voice of the fan that gave the match its original popularity.

The Boston writing boys said in the press box that Wes and Joe never did hit it off. Cronin did not admit to this but it could be detected that all was not well between the pair. “When Wes was fined $1,000 for walking cut of the box last year,” dis- closed one of the Back Bay newspaper men, “there were a lot of rumors say- ing that he would be traded. At the time Ferrell came out and said that one of the clubs he would not pitch for was Washington. I see he has changed his mind in a large way.” Chappie Hitting .390 for Sox.

Speaking of Grove reminds me that with him on the all-star team the Red Sox are going to gzet a tough break. I'm not talking pennant, mind you, but we play the Yankees in an important. double-header on July 5 and by pitching Grove we'd stand a fine chance of winning one of those games. But, doggone it, we can’t do it. The rule is that no all-star game pitcher can be used after July 4.» Chapman is elated with his mem- bership in the Red Sox but he was a little worried, too. “I read in a paper,” he said, “where some of the Washington gang and myself didn't Honestly, I thougint I got along with all of them.” It was remarked that with Boston having that short left-field fence Chappie ought to bat .350 at home. “I've batted .390 for the Red Sox,” disclosed Ben, “and the funny part of it is that only once have I hit the fence. center-field wall.

IV THE two-game Detroit series they left a total of 18 on the base paths Against the Browns they left 26 in three games, and this is comparatively low only because a select group of five were stranded. That was the day that | Oral Hildebrand pitched a two-hitter. Only six Nats reached base Against the Indians they left 29 on base in a three-game set and it was 29 more in the set with the White Sox. That business of leaving 13 stranded | vesterday was the second worst case since the club came home. Once, against Chicago, 15 were found high and dry. This habit is what cost a victory yesterday in the Boston series opener. It started in the second inning on a serious scale. With one out the Nats 2ot two on base and couldn’t score. In the third, with one down, Cecil Travis doubled and never got.farther than second base. In the sixth Joe Kuhel | doubled to open the round and was left on third. As the game wore on it grew worse. In the eighth inning, f'rinstance, Washington loaded the bases with one down and didn't get a run. Buddy Myer whiffed in the clutch and Rick Ferrell flied out. Grove Whipped Himself. VEN in the big ninth inning it was pretty awful. Lefty Grove, who pitched for the Bostons. pre- sented the Nats with their two runs. | Ossie Bluege. pinch-hitting. led off with a scratch single. Then Grove walked Hill and Buddv Lewis beat out a bunt. This filled the bases, but | the only way the Griffs could score was when Grove walked a run across | and the second was scored while the Sox were trying to make a double play on a roller by Johnny Stone. With the score tied at 2-2 there still were two runners on base, but | big Fred Sington, the run driver in, was a complete flop. He hit a soft liner to shortstop on a hit-and-run | play and Joe Cronin engineered a double play to end the inning and save the game. Sington, incidentally, left eight runners on base himself. Washington had & couple other chaces to push across the big run. | Travis led off the tenth, for example, \ with a walk and Myer was given the sacrifice sign. But Buddy, who won the batting title in 1935 by bunting, couldn’t lay one down and the rally was nipped by a force play, And in the twelfth Stone led off with & hit and Sington was mven‘ his second chance of the day to bunt him into scoring position.

In the second inning a curve ball hung and Jimmy Foxx slammed it for a home run with Cronin on base. This gave Grove the 2-0 lead he was destined to lose in the ninth inning. Except for this pitch Weaver out- pitched Grove. Before he was lifted in the seventh for a pinch-hitter, Monte had given up only four hits and Grove gave up only eight hits all day, but he walked eight and these free tickets, it developed, cost him his fourth straight win. In tying the score the Griffs, it was noticed, did not hit a single ball out of the infleld. Joe Kuhel was the Nats' man of the hour.

JFALLING back on Red Ruffing's pinch single in the ninth after George Selkirk and Bill Dickey had blasted out home runs earlier in the game, the Yanks defeated the Ath- letics, 3 to 2, yesterday. Sox kept pace with them, however, as they turned back the Tigers by the same score for their seventh straight | triumph, Largely responsible for the Sox's victory was Monty Stratton, big 23- year-old right-handed ace. In chalk- ing up his ninth success as compared to four sethacks, Stratton limited the | Tigers to three hits, fanned two and | did not issue a base on balls. The Sox also helped the Tigers tie a major league record in that not a Detroit player was left on base. Pete Fox and Goose Goslin scored on two of the hits and Billy Rogel was elimi- nated in a double play. Although the American League pen- nant scrap is much closer than usual, the National League is going the junior | circuit one better in that only three games separate the pace-setting Cubs and the fourth-place Pirates.

THE Cubs’ rough-and-tumble 11- to-9 triumph over the Cards, in which Dizzy Dean pitched one in | ning and was charged with the de- | feat; the Giants’ 4-to-3 decision over the Phillles in 10 innings, and the Pirates’ double victory over the Reds by the scores of 2-1 and 13-6, brought the four leaders closer together. Ten pitchers, six of them members of the Cardinal staff, saw action in the Cubs-Cards affair. Dean entered the game in the ninth with the gas house gang leading by one run. Three hits, a walk and errors by Mickey Owen and Leo Durocher gave the Cubs three runs and the game. Char- ley Root received credit for the win. In addition to the Giants-Phillies affair, in which Jim Ripple led the champions’ attack with four hits, Brooklyn and Boston went overtime, the Bees winning, 1-0, on Pitcher Lou Fette's twelfth-inning single.

ANS are puzzling over the all- star batting orders next Wed- nesday in Washington, but the major league owners are mak- ing plans to discuss a much more vital problem—ways and means to mini- mize player head injuries from pitched balls. There have been an unprece- dented number. the flimsy cap now in use, but there | is much discussion of a definite pro- tective headpiece. Already having been tested by polo players and steeplechase jockeys, the various types used in those hazardous sports command attention, They're not theoretical.
