Dizzy Trout Angers Umpires Yet Fears Reversal of Calls
Detroit pitcher Dizzy Trout enjoys arguing with umpires but says he does not want judges overturning decisions in his favor. A speeding charge last month was suspended by Traffic Referee John Wise as Trout celebrated Dizzy Trout day. Trout sent a thank you note and a $10 check, while the game recap notes Dan DiMaggio and Hank Wyse contributing to New York’s win. In Chicago, Ralph Kiner hit his 35th and 36th homers as the Pirates beat the Cubs 13 to 8, with multiple pitchers used. Cards top Reds 3-2 as Red Schoendienst drives in the decisive run in the ninth.
