Home Run Baker Is Hero Over Birds
Frank Home Run Baker, a 25-year-old rookie outfielder, hit his first big league homer in Cleveland’s 2-0 win over Baltimore. In nine games he’s batted .458 with a double and three triples, after a Waterbury season of .312 with nine doubles and six homers. The AL slate had Cleveland and Chicago Cubs, with Hargan keeping Baltimore to four hits as Harrelson added his 21st, while other games were rained out or postponed. Baker said he isn’t surprised by his early hitting and believes he can hit .280 to .290 in the majors.
