Last year Jakie May southpawed some dizzy games for Vernon and won 35 tussles and lost only seven. This year he has pitched in and out baséball. The big question is: Can he pitch like he did a year ago? Some of the tossers in the league say he's thru, while others claim he’s as good as Anyhor starting , and the lefthander should be in two games against the Indians while Vernon is here. He beat the Tribe twice in Los Angeles recently, allowing one run in 18 innings, so maybe he's not so bum after all.
