Giants Send Myatt and Vandenberg Back To Jersey City
In a 25 man roster move the New York Giants sent infielder George Myatt and pitcher Hy Vandenberg to the Jersey City farm in the International League. Vandenberg had only just been recalled after a four game win streak but struggled in relief and as a starter. Myatt’s erratic play at third helped spark the club's spring woes and Tony Lazzeri’s signing likely ends his New York stay with Alex Kampouris replacing him while Lazzeri remains ill.
