Young receivers battle to play longest stretch without bobble
New York July 30 A pair of young major leaguers Earl Grace of the Pittsburgh Pirates and Ray Hayworth of the Detroit Tigers battled for errorless catching this season. Both started to catch errorless balls in late 1931 and have continued through the campaign with no third strikes or wild throws. Hayworth totaled 337 chances with 260 putouts and 40 assists in 67 games, surpassing the AL record. Grace totaled 325 chances, 291 this year, a NL mark. Hayworth, with .300 batting, and Grace, below that pace, both fueled strong Pirates and Tigers seasons with solid defense and steady run production.
