Balked by rain in their first at- tempt, eight clubs of the Interna- tional league made another try fo- | day at opening the circuit's 46th | season. The Rochester Red Wings, cham pions of 1928 and 1929 and favor- | ites to take the crown again this the openings were, as usual, sched vear, were due to stage their open- ing ceremonies in Baltimore. All of | | | | of rain | and cold, wiped off five games from | vesterday's major les program, leaving but two contests in the Na- tional league and one in the Ameri- | can. And the Chicago White Sox| and Cleveland Indians still are try- ing to sage their opening at Chica- | o, hopeful of getting ft done today. before the Indians h to move on. Tt might have been bet for the National Jeague champions Chi- | cago Cubs, if the rainy area had ex- tended as far as St. Lounis. Playing | their second game there, the Cubs took a 13 to beating from the yampant Cardinals. rting in the first inning, the Cards collected 20 hits, six of them d s and one a home run by Jim Bottomley. George Fisher, young slugger recently ob- tained from the w York Giants, led the parade with four hits, giving him a record of eight blows in nine | times at bat for the first two games. The other National league gave Cincinnati an even games against the Pittsburgh Pirates with a 8 to 1 triumph. Pete Dono- Tue of Cincinnati engaged in a duel | of right handers against Ervin| Brame and came out ahead because | of the fine support he received. | o Donohue kept ten hits scattered and | ritz, Ford and Kelly put a quick | stop to Pirate threats by completing three double plays. The Reds bunch- ed a pair of their seven hits of Brame for two runs and Walker pro- | vided a third with a home run in.the seventh. In the American league, Wash- ington's Senators became the first| tfeam to win two games by nosing out the Boston Red Sox, 5 to 4, on the strength of two home runs in the early innings. Sam West, the first man up, go one, then Ossie Blucge cracked another with two on base After the third inning.
