Yanks Shea In Doubt After Injury
The New York Yankees rookie era star Frank Shea may not return to form after tearing a back muscle during an exhibition against USC. Yankee physician Dr Sidney Gayner declined to estimate recovery time. Meanwhile Charley Dressen kept Rex Barney in play, ordering a return to the Brooklyn squad in Miami. The Detroit Tigers, with a 3-8 exhibition mark, will miss third baseman George Kell for at least five days due to a sprained right hand from a pickoff play by Giants first baseman Mante Irvin, who stepped on Kell’s hand. Kell’s finger was cut but not broken.
