Yankee
Slump
NEW YORK, Oct. 8 .Ti Joe Di
Maggio. baiting cleanup, hasn't had
a hit in 11 times at bat in the first
three games of the Worid Series.
Hank Bauer is C-for-10. Yogi
Berra, the dumpy siege gun, is hit
ting an anemic .200 on a pair of
singles. Bobby Brown, a batting
standout in three previous series,
is batting .143 while Gene Woodling
is going at a 125 clip.
These are the renowned Bronx
Bomber . but any similarity to other
fence-wrecker wearing the same
name is strictly coincidental.
“I don’t know when we have had
such a hitting slump.” said Casey
Stengel, trying to explain why his
favored Yankees are struggling to
overtake the Giants in the World
Series, instead of vice versa.
It’s an unfamiliar role for the
vaunted Yankees, who have won 13
of the 17 world championship series
in which they’ve played. But it’s
also a rarity for these Stengeleers
not to come through with the big
blow when they need it. They’ve
left 21 on base.
'The Giant;-: have made a lot of
mistakes and we’ve had plenty of
chances to score,” Stengel con
tinued. ‘ But we’re just not getting
the hits.”
Stengel, who has shuffled his
order slightly but made no drastic
changes, said he would have to
stick with Berra and DiMaggio at
the No. 3 and No. 4 spots.
“Those guys won three pennants
and two World Series for me,” he
said. "You don’t pull out fellows
like that.”
Holes on
World
Series
By RIP WATSON
NEW YORK, Oct. 8—•jiP—There
was no direct public announcement
of yesterday's World Scries post
ponement, but word spread quickly
among the fans who had been wait
ing in the rain to get tleacher and
standing room tickets for the game
After trying to get some protec
tion from the elements for several
hours, the disappointed fans made
a rush for the sheltered subways
as soon as they learned of the
postponement.
The postponement reminded Sec
retary Eddie Brannick, who ha:
been with the Giants for more
years than most fans care to re
member, of the longest postpone
ment in World Series history.
That occurred in 1911 when the
Giants and Philadelphia Athletic:
waited for seven days to play the
fourth game of the series in Phila
delphia. Eddie recalls sitting !i
his hotel room from Oct. 17 unti
Oct. 24 waiting to get that one
played.
Officials of the Giants reileratec
that only tickets to game numbei
four, originally scheduled yester
day. would be honored today
Tickets for game number five an
good tomorrow.
The Yankee find themselves ii
a very unfamiliar position today
Although they’ve been in foui
World Series since 1942. this is th(
first time since then they’ve beei
behind in the games won and losl
column. 1942. of course, was the
last series the Yankees lost, to the
St. Louis Cardinals.
Jim Hearn was me lirsv u»h
righthander since Hal Schumachei
to beat the Yankees. Carl Hubbell
who won one game from the Yank
in 1936 and another in 1937, wa:
the only pitcher besides Schumache:
who could tame the slugging Yank
in those two World Series.
Reminded by a teammate tha
the five runs scored by the Giant
in the fifth inning Saturday al
were scored as unearned, victim Vi
Raschi came back gloomily, “The:
all count, don’t they?”
