President George Trautman planned to decide the protest after gathering umpire reports.

Yankees' Joe Gordon Turns War Club Into Lethal Bat Tool
Joe Gordon, star second baseman for the New York Yankees, has raised his batting average from .276 to .395 amid a record hitting streak. He credits a heavier Keller/Rudy York model bat, two inches longer and three ounces heavier, adopted after DiMaggio and Keller used it, for boosting his power. Gordon, 27, shifted from shortstop to second base in 1937, a move praised by Yankees management, and his improved bat equips him to patrol the keystone with speed and power as the World Series champions.
