Sewell Predicts Open Race as Browns Gain Confidence
UKE SEWELL says the Browns are not stronger than last year yet rivals aren’t either, so no cause for worry. He notes key players shifted to military duty while Boris Martin and Babe Martin offer a secret weapon, with Babe Martin returning to form after leg injuries. The Browns’ pitching is trusted, but the Yankees remain the team to beat after Jakucki’s arm troubles.
