Pirates Acquire Yankees First Baseman Jack Phillips
New York Yankees sold first baseman Jack Phillips to the Pittsburgh Pirates and recalled Porterfield from Newark. Phillips hit .311 in 43 games this season, was benched when Joe DiMaggio returned to the outfield and Tom Henrich moved to first base. Pirates’ other first basemen Jack Stevens and John Hopp are on the injured list. Phillips joins his new team tomorrow, while Porterfield, returning from spring injuries, will rejoin the Yankees tomorrow.
