LASSEN | ACK of good pitching has been the biggest) weakness of the New York Yankees this} season. Carl Mays is their best bet, with Waite Hoyt being a close second. Bob Shawkey, Elmer Quinn, Rip Collins, Harry Harper and Bill Piercy don’t rank very high as big league performers. So don't be surprised if “Babe” Ruth, the Yankees’ home-run king, goes to the pitching knoll should the regulars fail— providing, of course, that the Yanke*cinch the flag today or tomorrow. ‘They figure to cop. ri During the past few weeks Ruth has been doing gonsid- erable work in the bull pen, warming up the. famops left arm that made him one of the greatest southpaws in the game a few years ago with the Boston Red Sox. Since Ruth has been hitting home runs the fans have nearly forgotten about his pitching prowess, but he ranked as one of the best hurlers eyer seen in action in the big show. Ruth, with the experience of pitching in three world’s series classics with the Red Sox, may be the man to turn| the tide against the Giants, in case of a pinch, by taking) a turn on the slab—providing, of course, that the Cleveland Cleveland’s Chances Mighty Slim | Before the day is over Seattle fang | but the shouting, and with the New| will know whether or not the Cleve | York Giants already clinched in the land Indians have a chance to tie| National league, the New York fans} needing one, Griffith | ise The Indians have two games Gent Chesdro in to pitch the “croo- | {ert with Chicago, and t During the first part of the EAM | ioss two today to Philadelphia and scored two runs 10 /the Indians to tie up the race. an@d| While four teams stil) have a im the ninth | chance to win the Coast league bunt: the next | pions. finger | The Angels won from the Portland the moist ball, the pitch | Beavers again yesterday by a 10 to the stands and |2 score, while Seattle wae throwing ‘With the winning | the hooks into San Francisco here the American | for the fourth straight time, Friday's | Francisco. in eight | himself as a hitter these daya He | safeties. ‘and the bases full. | Patterson, Seattle's third sacker, has| that would have tied up the ball Jones.
